This is my blog, mostly about my models planes but I am sure other stuff will sneak in! Tuesday, December 28, 2010. Covering the Xigris C2. I thought I would post a small how to on covering while I am working on my ZN Line Xigris C2. I will share how I make my covering schemes, which are usually somewhat complicated. It is a fairly straight forward process and nothing to be afraid of trying. Next I use a spray contact adhesive to stick the plan to heavy paper for the templates. By now the templates shoul...

This is my blog, mostly about my models planes but I am sure other stuff will sneak in! Thursday, March 19, 2009. Got in a few more flights today for practice, not flying for the past 5 months is starting to show up a bit, but a few more flights should get most of that polished off. Ivan came down from Ocala (where he is staying at the field in his motorhome) to get in some flights with us. He is flying his trusty Genesis from last season with a 170 CDI motor that is running really well for him. Well, I ...

This is my blog, mostly about my models planes but I am sure other stuff will sneak in! Friday, August 28, 2009. At this point I was a little frustrated but ok, it was better to happen now than in the contest. No worries, lots of time to make some changes and get used to the plane without the T on it. Uhhhh no, since my only charger that I had brought with me out to practice decided it had enough as well! So I had two packs left that were charged and made the best of those two flights. I am glad to be do...
