In this 83rd show, we do a little "call-back" to some older material that we have some updates for (otherwise, not a whole lot going on LOL). I was able to get my Millennium RC MicroSSX finished and maidened, so I do a quick review of my experience with this cool little (and I MEAN little) plane.

This week we talk about some cool things discovered on the interwebs (lost plans found, LED tutorials, CNC information, etc,), some letters I've received, and a great Old Timer design that I contributed to.

Is a PhlatPrinter CNC machine just a bit outside of your budget right now? Well, here are the links that I shared with Tim to inspire the build of a 'manual control' hot wire cutter ti make it easier to cut out those foamies: Large Dimension Hot Wire Foam Cutter LOTS Of Great Foam Cutting Info Here! Oh, and if you should happen to find one of these on the shelf at your local Hobby Lobby, you might snag one up as it appears that they have been discontinued!

Just like clock-work, we're back with an 80th installment this week, but alas, it's just been so stinkin' hot that we just don't have a lot of RC talk this week. If you know us, though, you'll know that both Dorsal and I are really into CNC machines to support our respective RC 'habits'. I spent some significant time in the workshop on a mission to discover more about these great machines and how they operate. Tune in as we explain the "Right-Hand Rule", as well as how I suggest that the PhlatScript might be improved for use with the upcoming PhlatPrinter MK3 machine and other such Overhead-Gantry systems. We also have some other stuff, including a visit from the RCadvisor and also some great pictures of a listener's completed e-QSC! Have you completed your e-QSC from this summer's Scratch-build Club? If so, get your pics to me by August 15th so that you can be eligible to win a free power system!!

We're back this week for our 79th show, and this time we've got a guest in the workshop - Mr. Greg Markley from WMParkFlyers. During our visit with Greg, we get a little insight as to how he's creating and painting the kits he sells, as well as some new kits that will be coming soon to his site.
