Hmmm, if memory serves me correctly I believe a wee bit of fire
damage happened at the Los Banos Scale Soar-In last year caused
by a NiCad battery with crash damage. I searched back and
couldn't find my photos. I'm sure somebody has these shots.
Could ya bring 'em to us so I could file 'em
I've got a slope plane that I'd like to find out
more about. It got is used from the local toystore about six years ago where it
was on consignment as a "slope racer". It did look the part, so I bought it
cheap, fitted a radio and flew it. It lived up to its description -- it was
really
Got a picture?

Well, shucks... I first thought it was a Sparrow but that plane has a V
tail. My only other guess is a Dragonfly but I'm not confident of that at
all.
Sorry, I struck out.

Hmmm, if memory serves
No, the lathe just makes the job easier if you want to make ballast
in significant quantity. Here is a simpler way to make slugs :
1) Getting a metal tube of outer diameter that fits the ballast
tube.
2) Epoxy a metal plate to one end to seal it off. Make sure
that it¡¦s a tight seal.

As I remember the story the fire was due to a BBQ incident ?
I was out at Los Banos this last week and could see no fire damage, but I

walk down the hill to get a plane...lol

Thought Dragonfly for a split second too, but the DF only has a single
taper wing, and the TE of the horizontal stab is straight, not swept back.
Looks like it should be a nice swoopy slope aerobatic plane...kinda like
a Son of Savage.

4A) Call 911 and wait for the paramedics, since the lead you tried to pour
into the tube hit the water instead and exploded all over you, your garage
and the dog, severely burning everything.
NEVER get molten lead near water. NEVER EVER!!

Pouring molten lead right next to water is not a great idea.
