Thanks Brandon... That is the main thing I like about this hobby... The people here are of a different breed!!!! As long as you say it in fun, that's how it's taken... And Woodie is, from what I can tell, just like me, so that makes it even better!!! Just a lesson to ya..."Life is tooooo short to get caught up in a bunch of BULL$%@*, take it one day at a time, and get everything you can out of that day!!!!"

Life, Love, Live... It's the only way!!!!!!!!!1
Doug.

Got another vid for Y'all....

Doug, all I can say is very, very well done.
Love it!

Thanks Oz, I'm still not getting the speed I want, but all in all, it's coming together good!! I tried a bigger more pitch 2 blade prop yesterday and twisted the shaft off at the weld The last vid was with the small 3 bladed props... WORK,WORK,WORK,...I MEAN... TINKER, TINKER, TINKER!!!!!!1

OK Woodie..Final speed to beat....51.4 MPH. Why is that the final speed? I just got finished taking her apart!!! Death Of A Kat!!! At least it was by my own hand I set a goal going into this build, and told myself, if it didn't reach that goal, she would be dissambled!!! Well, that day has come!!! So here is a few (parting) pics...no pun intended, of her after I took her apart. I already have another Kat in mind based on this one... but with quiet a few changes!!!

Dough, for Gods sake! What have you done? How could you do it?
Poor Kat. Just as I was beginning to love her!
Memories and a few vids are all that I have left now.
If thats what you call "tinkering", I would hate to see you at "work"!

Now leave me to my grief...
- An build another pray for my Kat Killer to hunt.

Cheers in memory of the Kat, that died too young.

Woodie

I've got some plans here in front of me now... doing some mods to them that I think will help. Some flaws I saw in my big Kat...I'm tweaking a few things to see if that will offset the problems... Who knows, but time will tell!!
Thanks for the condolences...
Doug

That's a pity after all the work you put in. Hope the next one turns out better!

PS: You should paint the next one black too...this one was a vision of evil in Black!!!!

All the best,

Brandon.

Thanks Brandon... It's not a pity, I love the build just as much, if not MORE than actually playing with them!!! You look in the background at some of my pics, airplanes, helis, boats, trucks, you name it...I build them, or assemble them, play with it once or twice, then start building something else.

I agree on the black scheme though...I did like that alot!!!

I've actually put out a challenge to myself, to have the next one done before Woodie gets finished, so we can still have a descent "joust"

KEEP BUILDING!!!!!!!!!!!!
Doug.

Dont cats usually have nine lives?
Cant wait to see your next one!
