Time to get caught up, Sunday we went to church, I flew the helicopters, worked on the Skylane and watched the Vikings game which was great! Monday I continued working on the Skylane, I got the wing tips shaped and started glassing the wing, doing the bottom first. I also got in some more flights with the helicopters. I made a trip around the trails picking up blown down branches. I also found Harper's lost drone when I remembered hearing something hit the roof before Steve stopped by to tell me it was lost. I went out on the deck to check the backside of the roof and spotted it in the lawn with its LED's blinking away.
Tuesday I got the top of the wing fiberglassed, let it cure and then gave it a second coat of epoxy to fill the weave of the fiberglass cloth.
I also put a layer of 3/4 oz fiberglass cloth on the center section of the horizontal stabilizer. I made another trip around the trails and picked up the last of the limbs. They are in pretty good shape until the next wind storm.
Vera had bible study today, I did the recycling, got the mail and there was a package I have been tracking there. I went to the store to get some bread, twenty five dollars later, I had bread, lunch and a couple of other things that caught my eye. The package I have been waiting for was a clear topped project box. I had gotten a digital display for the servo pulse width and it was not in a case so I was kind of nervous about it shorting out on something conductive. I ended up mounting it and a pulse generator in the same box. By removing the jumper I can use either one by its self.
