Title: TOPClass Contest
Post by: john e. holliday on August 31, 2015, 07:43:21 PM
Going to wait and see if the event director posts the results and if someone else will post pictures.  My camera was in the car, but I was having too much fun flying my planes.  Two events and I my five attempts to get four officials.  I still retain the last place position of both events.  Anyway I now know more about my planes and what I did wrong.   I know I flew them.  The Imperial Ringmaster was on too long a line(.015 X 65 eyelet to eyelet).  The Gotcha Streak needs more work on trimming and I need to fly more.   But, if I get serious then I don't have fun.   To me Sunday was almost stunt heaven, not too hot and just enough breeze to blow the turbulence away. 

So today instead of going out to the field or even working on the planes I started my next project.  Will be taking more time with this one and may post progress on the correct location of this great forum.  But I wanted to show off my newest that I purchased to help my project and future projects along.  It is a Harbor Freight combination belt and disk sander.  Anyway, more later.

I got the same exact model belt/disk sander and love it. ~>
Use for my planes and also sharpening and balancing my model racing hydro and mono props.
