A Little About Me
Welcome to my RC flight blog. I'm Erwin and this is where I document my chronicles in the RC hobby. I fly stuff. If it has wings and a radio-control link, I can fly it. I do most of my flying in South Florida - mainly Miami. I've been flying RC airplanes for many years. I invite you to follow me on Twitter and subscribe on YouTube because I'm cool and definitely worth a follow.

Update: Down Time, More Blue Foam
Posted on September 1, 2011 | No CommentsI haven’t been doing much flying or building lately. I haven’t really had much time to do anything RC. In early August I flew this thing I finished like two months ago: It’s a Dead-Simple Wing made bigger and with... -
New Logo: New Image?
Posted on June 24, 2011 | No CommentsI got a little tired of seeing the that outdated logo I’ve had on the site header since like forever so I went into Photoshop and made me a new one. I also changed to graphics on the heading around... -
Pic Pick: Daniel’s Plane in the Woods
Posted on June 17, 2011 | No CommentsFor my first RC Pic Pick I have chosen a somewhat funny picture of @rctestflight‘s crashed FPV plane between some trees atop a snowy “hump.” For more information about how this airplane ended up where it ended up see this... -

A Short-Lived Foamie RC Plane Called the T-32
Posted on November 16, 2010 | No CommentsA few weeks ago I started to build a full-fuse foamie from Elmers’ foam board, Gorilla Glue and Plywood. It came along nicely and was looking good. I named it the T-32 Thunder. Unfortunately, on its maiden flight I crashed... -
New 26″ Park Jet Foamie – Intro
Posted on July 13, 2010 | 1 CommentHere’s a little ParkJet I’m designing with some inspiration from @LIPOPILOT‘s S-28 Shadow. It’s a clipped-wing delta jet with one vertical stabilizer and air-foil wings. I’ve never designed my own foamie so I’d like your input. -
New Tricycle Landing Gear on Super Cub
Posted on May 17, 2010 | No CommentsAround March I started getting itchy to fly the Super Cub out of the water and back on dry land. I had been thinking of ways to attach tricycle landing gear to it and put the energy and enthusiasm I had to it. I used the rear wire from the floats, still attached to its slot, an extra Hextronik HXT900 servo in the cowl and a DuBro Nosewheel to make this happen. I put 3 Dave Brown 3-inch Lectra Lite wheels on. It turns very tightly. I flew it once but got no video of it. It lands smoothly and although take-offs are a bit rough, they work out just fine...
