RC BAe Hawk with "Afterburner"


Originally uploaded by _Allen_


LED "Afterburner" installed in the Eflight BAe Hawk. Installation was pretty simple, I put a "Y" connector on the throttle channel of the receiver with one lead running to the speed control and the other to a tiny servo with a microswitch mounted on it. When the servo's arm gets very near full travel (full throttle) it hits the switch and turns on the "afterburner".

Mosque in 1/285th Scale, originally uploaded by _Allen_.

Master patterns for our new Mosque model. The white bits are production parts from our molds, the grey primer bit is a master. This model is going into the mold making material tonight and should be available for purchase in a day or two. The bit of the mosque that you see cast in white will be available for purchase on the site later tonight as the basic mosque, the model that included the extended portion will be the deluxe mosque.

Amazing Plastic, originally uploaded by _Allen_.

I have not built a plastic model airplane in a while. I've really got my eye on this one. This is the most amazing kit I've ever seen ... unfortunately it's priced accordingly at almost $200.00
