What did people do before 3D printing! I am reminded as I read that “Butch is a very patient man”. I always enjoy the updates too.

It flies better than my nitro engine did. It was always fussy, now a joy to fly. I would be happy to share any CAD files.

Ohhh, I gotta say that vacuum bag process is most interesting! I need to review this pics again and again. Are those clay strips used to seal the plastic layers?

Well done! I should do that to my 429. It has a large vertical fin and could use some more support.

Danny, do I see you machined the hex patterns into the female insert to allow for glueing fixation to the body?
On Vario R22 fuselage improvements · Mar 2, 2026
Looks great and well done. What did you use for adhering the cloth to the body?

It all looks so nice. I cannot guess at the man-hours for those panels alone!

Thank you Butch.

Gonzalo, congratulations on a successful test flight. Q: how did you determine the motor temp via telemetry? Built in sensor?
On Vario Chinook XL · Feb 16, 2026
This will be most interesting to watch!

Ha! Funny, had to get some final testing done. Even while I saw everyone having fun at the field” Makes me wonder about myself at times.

Colorado weather has been unseasonably warm relatively speaking thus I’m not giving up flying yet. However the Lama needed its inspection. As suspected it needed a few things adjusted and tightened. It has over 100 flights on it. Actually, I inspect it after each flight, but this one was more...
