Zucchini Lasagna

It’s that time of year where you wind up with some zucchinis as big as baseball bats and gotta find something to do with them. In our house that means zucchini lasagna.

This one is made with lactose free ricotta and mozzarella cheeses so I don’t need to take a dairy pill before eating it! I find that I cannot tell the difference between regular and lactose free ricotta or mozzarella cheese.

As seen at the state fair this weekend. Every other food vendor had AI generated signs. This was the worst one I could find

Dollar Store Foam Chuck Glider

Can anyone recommend a design for a chuck glider made of dollar store foam?

I'm thinking something like really basic just a body, wing, and horizontal stabilizer.

I tried building one off the cuff but if didn't fly for shit.

This is probably the ugliest car I've ever seen. It's a Honda Puyo Concept car.

How to build foamies from scratch

I build and fly mostly balsa kits. It’s fun and I love the models but crashing (or even a rough landing) can be heartbreaking and time consuming.

I see some scratch built foamies posted here that look like they’re made of dollar store foam board and look fun as hell to fly.

What’s the best way to get started building my own?

I’ve got all the RC gear I need, I just need to build some kind of plane for it.

Dancing Wings DLG repairs.

Working on getting my DLG back in the air after the front fell off last weekend. All I’ve got to work with is scraps from a couple of completed kits. It won’t be pretty but it’ll fly im sure.

Next up is to finish the nose and try and construct a cockpit cover from scraps.

In the second pic you can see some of the extra bracing for the wing mounting that I added after the wing ripped off the fuselage after the first couple of throws.

The front fell off

This is my Dancing Wings DLG. I think i’ve yet to take this thing out for a flight session without something breaking. It’s partly down to the pilot, partly the thrower, and partly the quality of the design and materials.

the first couple of flights the wing ripped off the fuselage because the mounting was just not robust enough. I modified it to be a four point mount with the front two being thru bolted through the fuselage.

Then the whole back end came off right at the spot where the carbon tail boom stops. that happened twice. i’ve reinforced with extra balsa and epoxy and we’re good for now.

Then I took it to a highschool track meet and had some of the discus throwers huck it. After the second throw the tail broke off again and in the resulting crash the nose got bent up and the vertical stabilizer snapped off.

Today we had probably 10+ successful launches/flights until a nasty stall at about 20ft sent it nose first into the grass. we tried for one more flight and the cockpit cover flew off and the battery flew out. you can see how the landing went.

I’m pretty happy with my repairs and the fact that the wing itself has held up. The fuselage design though, not very robust.

Is everyone watching the World Cup or what?

Soccer was not nearly as popular as a kid in the United States as it is now. Even a few years ago I wouldn’t have given a damn about any games the USA wasn’t in.

In the last few years I’ve started going to games for the semi-pro USL2 soccer team in my area and for another smaller semi pro team as well

I’ve been basically watching at least two World Cup matches a day since it started. I’ve really been enjoying it.
