Well I have taken a year off and now its time to get back to work. I have 5 planes hanging on the wall I have flown in past Nationals. I want to show up with a new one. I have my average kit on the shelf. (consisting of no more than pile of wood). I have 5 engines to choose from.
The definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over expecting diffrent results. This year will be diffrent. I am designing the way "I" think it will work best.
I have just renewed my AMA membership and I am filling out my NATS entry form. As I build this new plane I will start flying when weather gets above 30. There will be no pictures until its done as I am not going through the BS of it has no pilot or its the wrong color. This one is on me. My vision and no one Else's.
I will be taking pictures along the way to post after completion. I am looking for someone with CAD experience who can loft out some fuse formers for a very diffrent (light) construction method I will be doing. Larry, Pat jump in anytime.

Hi Robert,
Any plans to document this on http://www.stunthanger.com/class/ ? I drop in occasionally but nothing seems to have moved since you 1st set it up. I was looking forwards to seeing it grow and learning from a master craftsman. y1

"I am designing the way "I" think it will work best."
As I explained to my boss, once, (about model building/flying) "I am the designer, builder and flyer----if it doesn't work, I know who to talk to."
Go for it, and let the dust settle where it may.

No I will have to use someother software as it has been disabled on this server. Thank the backdoor hackers. When I find a breach I cut it off at the head. Why do you suppose this site runs so smooth? I am not a software engineer and find no need to fix what works already.

Robert,
I may have blown my mind doing P-47's and FW190's lately and could use a nice break by doing your plane. Send me an E-mail and let's talk. Bet I can loft you ribs soon and even cut them and the formers with the laser.

I just looked into your mind and the planes absolutely the wrong color and you need to install a pilot.
Just couldn't resist! ;D

not this time

Robert, glad to hear you are back at it. Won't question if it is another variant of the past Vipers. Hope that is the right name. Hopefully I can make it to St Louis this year. I know I have been threatening the last several years. What with leg problems and finances. Also I know your new plane will be a killer. H^^

Well holy smokes, look who's back!
Can't wait to see the new bird Sparky, I've really been missing watching your stuff here on the forum. Hope you plan on sticking around. y1

Robert,
What was that plane you designed around the .40 FP back in the day, that everyone else was using bigger engines in, if I remember correctly it was pretty nice looking and flew pretty well. Rattling your chain from Oregon. H^^

Perhaps the Vipers.

It is really simple.
We all enjoy seeing Sparky's great building! I am sorry that we hit you too hard about pilots.. but we have to have some fun! I personally think that you color schemes are great, and your building skills are way up there. So is it OK if we beg you for some details?
