Slowly but surely-Retract gears.

Post by Irvine.J » Wed Oct 11, 2006 2:17 pm

These aren't the servo's I'll be using, so they are only tacked in, but damn, its all coming together nicely. HooraH! I couldn't get the parts I wanted at the shop, and the damn retracts don't do what the dodgey people at my shop said they would, anyway, bittersweet victory for now...nearly there.

Enjoy - Riffing on a pulsejet to Tchaikovsky's 1812...oh yeah!

Fortunately, I got to see it this morning before it got dropped. There is a big push right now for these "sharing" sites to clean up anything that uses music obviously not created by the producer of the video content. I wonder if that is what has happened here.

The 1812 Overture is great - but you've got to play it yourself on your electronic keyboard or something. Better yet, compose your own ...

Ahh there just for my plane, they retract up and rotate 45* lat and retract 90* to sit flush with the fuselage so you can't see them from a front on aspect. Try VLC to play the movie
