Great picture Carlos! What a cracking looking aircraft!

Really glad to hear you have sorted out your props Lyle!

We will see about the props. I have had no communication from Minecraft since the original exchange....I hope they got thing sent.

Maybe give them a call on Monday to ask Minecraft for an update? Fingers and toes crossed that they were able to ship replacements to you without delay.

Got th.e decal paper a few days ago. I asked Minecraft to toss in a decal sheet, too. May go ahead and print some. Probably have to charge my phone up to call them. I hate telephones. :bag:

Very nice Lyle! Glad they came through okay.


Oh, and it's Minicraft, not Minecraft. Minecraft is an online game, quite fun too.

Well, got this one done. It was a fun build for me, low parts count, the fit was pretty good. Only down side was the broken props, but Minicraft solved that one. I was going to go outside and take a few pictures, but it is extremely windy today, very sunny and seasonably warm, but windy (30-40 mph gusts...45-60 kph).

Wah, Wah…can't post any images right now and probably not for a few hours. Postimages.org is doing server maintenance. Time to go fix lunch. Probably coleslaw, something else and some sort of hot veggie. Sound good?
