What Became Of The Launch Pad TALOS???

[K'Tesh]

Dont think I won't Big foam fins, naturally nose heavy...could be a winner, but I want to see his work first

Might have to PM him on this one... He's been offline for 10 days, who knows when he'll be back.

Pinging again, have you had a chance to fly this yet?

Hey burkefj,

Unfortunately no; it was scheduled several times over the last flying season and got scrubbed due to unfavorable winds and or weather. The Talos is ready to fly on a small H. I may use it to get my level 1 at some point. It was built primarily for my son as a way for us to spend time together.

As most teenagers, his interests have shifted in another direction. We are now learning to play music together (him guitar and me drums / mostly AC/DC).

This hobby is like a satellite in my life meaning that it moves close for a time and then gets further away. Therefore, I don't take it too seriously unlike others that haunt this forum. (you know who you are)

I enjoy your posts and your projects, you are a very talented builder and pilot. BTW, did you splurge for the Hellcat or the 392?

Kid, Mine is actually a stock 5.7 R/T but with a mopar hood/wing that came that way when I got it, it's plenty of fun for me. I also cycle through my hobbies, competetive shooting season is coming up but yes, I have been on a tear lately on rocket gliders. I think we'd all like to get a confirmation of how well the pivoting fins work so we can copy your homework. Your work is outstanding on this model!
