First Ocean Crossing Beastie!

Here are some snaps of 3/16" aluminum shaft rudder assembly. This will be a retrofit for a Multiplex Evo 12 and I am very stoked to see the results when completed! It is also the first one to leave the continent.

Cheers,
Andy

School

Here is a snap of where inspiration is drawn from. I tried to get a good cross section of classic American and even a couple Canadian radios too see production techniques, variations in products and really get the vibe of these gems.

The Spektrum DX7 is a great workhorse and shall be part of the stable once all the design work is done. The herd will be culled at some point but there a few guys, like the S&O and Proline SS, that are going nowhere.

The strange one in in the middle is no classic just an homage to the greats and something that I like to fly :-)

Have a great one,
Andy

Friday Update

Had a great meeting with the local cnc shop owner. The next small run will be as was but the the future possibilities look very promising. Saw some of his sample work and it was stellar.

Have a great one,

Friday Update

I will be meeting with a local CNC shop owner today and hopefully have good news regarding the cage and bezel production. The waterjet cutting has been very successful for the cap and cup parts as well as the scissors.
