Title: August 16th 2015 New build finished!! 118 oz
Post by: PJ Rowland on August 16, 2015, 07:48:17 AM
For those that might remember meeting my wife Rhiannon at the nats will enjoy knowing we just finished a new addition to the airforce. It took about 9 months which isnt sparky fast but we took our time to get it right. The build has finally come out of the workshop.
Ended up at 118oz still needs work to be competitive, the finish was traditional. . And quick! We started the finishing process at 11:30pm and by 12:19am that night he was done.

Hunter Flynn Rowland, both mummy and baby doing great.

Best looking scale model I have ever seen. Documentation also looks good.

Congratulations once again.

However I see that you didn't go with the Paul David Rowland name...

Too bad......

I hope Rhiannon is doing well.

PJ,
Congrats to you both.  I thought you told me you were making the next one electric powered.  Where does the battery go?

I can vouch for that for both of us, Bill!  I've done a number of memorable things in my lifetime but they all pale in comparison to the joy those two (and now their families)  continue to bring to this day.

PJ!  What the heck is with the picture of "you" with Hunter?  Traditionally, the first exposure is of Mom and baby and we were all, of course, waiting for a picture of Rihannon.  There's still time to make up for it.

Well done, the both of you.

Ted

Can't use this one in competition over here, mate; your wife helped "build" your new creation, so you're in violation of the BOM!  LL~

Seriously, please accept my most heartfelt congratulations. Having "built" two of this type of "model" I can tell you that they bring a lifetime of enjoyment!

And, you'll get lots of building done now; it's for sure that you won't be sleeping too much... <=

Ohh. You wanted to see a photo of her and the baby. Well i asked her about showing a photo and she said in her bold typical fashion..

"Well.. if its a stunt related thread.. they want to know if its electric otmr I.C so showing me refueling him ready for a flight would show me not using the electric pump, but fuelling it direct from the 2 gallon cans i have to take everywhere! Seriously imagine taking 2 gallons of fuel everywhere you go! "

Both doing well.

Congrat's, PJ and Rhiannon.  There goes your free time for the next 18-to-20 years.  Well worth it, though!

Paul, its been easy actually.

What im struggling with is time to build. Hes sleeping and eating well. Rhi is doing well. I take my hat off to those of you who compete and have kids. Its hard.
