| pfinn | BMJR Model Products Geef 250 | Build | 30-Dec-19 14:01 |  | | Views : 4515 | | Don C. The "Clown" Racer. It has hence been painted to match original gray. The "McCoy .35" was temperamental (Old ;o) ) so I ended up with the Veco instead. But the McCoy looks better!! |
| pfinn | Brodak Pathfinder | Parked | 30-Dec-19 08:10 |  | | Views : 2011 | | I fit it to my hand grip. |
| pfinn | Brodak Pathfinder | Parked | 30-Dec-19 08:09 |  | | Views : 1973 | | I made an adjustable control handle for it too. |
| pfinn | Brodak Pathfinder | Parked | 30-Dec-19 08:08 |  | | Views : 2109 | | I left the silk unpainted because I prefer the "Open" look. I used only enough Dope to fill in the Silk to save weight. I may someday add some subtle graphics. I haven't flown it yet because, truthfully, I'm afraid I'll become too dizzy. Crunchy Crunchy Balsa Bits Time! |

| pfinn | Brodak Pathfinder | Build | 30-Dec-19 07:56 |  | | Views : 2202 | | It was suggested on the plans to lighten the rear of the aircraft by creating open structure on the stabilizer and rear half of the fuselage. So I did! Hanging while the Dope dries. |

| pfinn | Brodak Pathfinder | Build | 30-Dec-19 07:54 |  | | Views : 2004 | | I decided to try using Dope and Silk to cover this one. |

| pfinn | Brodak Pathfinder | Build | 30-Dec-19 07:52 |  | | Views : 2062 | | Selecting which engine. .049 or .074. I opted for the .074 because of the lower rpm and the ability to swing a larger diameter propeller. I wanted to slow the aircraft down yet create enough thrust to be able to go vertical and keep the lines tight. Plus...the dizziness factor!! |
| pfinn | Brodak Pathfinder | Build | 30-Dec-19 07:47 |  | | Views : 2125 | | This is not the Geef 250. This is a Brodak Pathfinder CL kit. I've contacted James a couple of times, but alas, the model requests have not yet appeared. Absolutely no problem with me though. Thought I'd post these. A resurrection project. I started this way back when and got this far. I had spent two years care-giving my Dad before my Germany move. During which I built a Cabin/Workshop/Man-cave on the property for the both of us. After a few other projects, I decided to finish this. I had almost finished the wing. |
