and as the actor says that, GL is thinking 'I wrote BEACON 1, but that works too'

Looks Great so far, I'll be watching! :cool:

Shortened version of 'down to the pattern' taken from old machine shop lingo. If your parts were "down pat" then they were 'perfect'.

@mijob has these TIE Fighter wings down pat now. Lookin great. :CHEERS:

:bowdown: The level of detail is incredible! Every project you take on always has just a little something extra. the magazines, the customization of adding your friend on the cover. You are such a blessing to all who know you.

Your construction of this is Top Notch! Lovely First you get qualified as a pilot, then TIE secondary, then Interceptor. Once qualified, you report to @snake7 for shrinkage. :rolllaughing:

I agree with the darker green.

Biggest rocket I ever built and flew was a 2 stage, and it became a surface to air rocket.. The public RC field was across the road from the rocketry field, I called area clear, double checked my flight path, did my count down, hit the igniter, rocket went woosh, right thru an RC plane, that...

I knew a guy in Texas that built his own model rocket motors, up to J size. Biggest I ever flew was an E 18-3, 19ish newtons for 18 seconds. by comparison an Estes E will only burn for 3 seconds. my friend used an optical tracker, and it had a calculated apogee of 4000 ft. but the Shute...

This is gonna be a strongly built model! Once it's finished, find some Estes D16-0 rocket motors, and put one in each nacelle, and send her up to the stratosphere... :biggrin:

Welcome Aboard! I spent several months in San Diego when I was in the USN, the when my stepson joined the USN I went back there and lived for 6 months in 2021 and 22, to look after my new born granddaughter. These "Pixels" are great, for people like me with depth perception issues, the...

The problem was not with the program, but rather with the programmer...:rolllaughing: I was just saying that I cant even understand how Excel works...

Longitudinal is long ways, stick and tissue models the cross sections would have notches for longitudinal framing.

This so great :cool: Your friend will love it! and then maybe... we could build it.

I'm no designer, but stick and tissue modeling tells me, get your cross sections, then your longitudinal, then support blocking, then skin.

Sounds like a @Revell-Fan question. :cool: I tried to design a paper box once... It didn't work so good. :(

The blackbird I liked most was the old 1/48th scale YF-12, I took that kit and backdated it to be the M-21 mothership, found a resin 1/48th D-21 drone, and mated it to the top. I love How big this one is, but to each his own. I couldn't find a place to display a 1/144th Blackbird where I...

I must agree, Great work and a beautiful cockpit sphere. :bowdown: This should be a nice diversion from your multi year builds. :rolllaughing:

Looks GREAT! The old Uhu02 kit is nice in it's own rite, and that's why @mijob chose it as a starting point. I'll be watching this one.

Luckily, I had my 2 Tb Seagate dive when my laptop crashed. Now I m just running an elcheapo deluxe Mini PC, Beelink M12 with an intel Alder Lake N100 processor, but 500 gb SSD and 16 gb of DDR5 ram. it runs Windows 11 home fine.
