Ken,
Eventually yes- but right now the right wing parts are all stored away until I finish the left wing.

Polishing continues. Here I am almost done with C on the top wing skin.

"Let there be light! This is the other part of the Fresh Aero kit. "

Bryan, is the flashing sequencer part of the Fresh Aero Kit?

Darick,
I think Fresh Aero offers one. I got mine from ebay. Search for 11.1005SF. Mine is a -27, which gives 27 flash patterns. Sort of silly for an airplane. The lower model has 7 flash patterns.

Hi Bryan,

Can I ask you a question about your hockey stick bending jig? I see the one inch wide bolt in your photo. Did you also make the channel that the bolt gets pushed down into also one inch wide, or did you make it a bit wider to allow some space for the 1/4" thick hockey stick? It looks like a great approach btw. -kevin

Kevin,
I have been making the slot the same size as the bolt. We never bend parts 180 degrees so you don't need space for the metal. My later bend efforts don't use the half-hole in the 2x4, instead I screwed a couple of oak boards to a piece of ply. The holesawed 2x4 crushed as it was spruce or whatever material they are - too soft.

Hi Bryan,

I am insterested, after reading your thread regarding you replacing the Hockey Stick, I am wondering why you had to replace it.

Al,
If you go back to page 24 you will see I screwed up and had to recover.
