Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
Ok I sent a PM and ekitten2 can't do anything with the TE for a couple weeks. If I held it for another week to bolt it to the plane I build for it and fly it, then it would take at least a week to get to him (Australia I think). Should I pursue this or move to the next guy on the list?

Sure that's fine. I know with the weather and all it's hard to get out and fly it. Just wanted to hear an update on it.
Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
Ok, I'll check with ekitten2 and see if that works.

I want you to have the chance to get it up in the air, I can't wait to see the pics!
Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
Thanks Jacob! I really want to get the TE on the Black Hawk Nobler I build, just for the TE. It will be fun to get some flights on it with my boys.

Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
Does anyone have a Cox TE logo, that printable? I'd like to put one on the wing of the Nobler for the photo-op.

I have this.. but I've never tried printing it. I merely copied it from the left margin/ side-bar. Would that work? With a PC.. you just hover the cursor over the pic and "right-click". Choose/click save picture as... from the menu options.. and pick a destination. (Desktop, folder etc.) This method works for most images.
Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
Sorry I missed the last couple posts, thanks. I'll print one off tomorrow. They will look good on the wing.

My 1st experience with printing graphics was when I built my CEF Speed model. I used full-sheet matte-clear shipping-labels designed for laser-printing. I finished with several mistings of clear TF LustreKote. There was no "bleeding" that might have occurred with ink-jet printing. They've only seen the oil spray from a couple unsuccessful flight-attempts though, so I can't say how long they'd hold up after a normal season of flying.
I have a sizable (and constantly growing) decal folder. Anytime someone posts a decal pic.. I snag it! It's so easy now to digitally add those tasteful little touches to customize your model!
Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
I don't have a LaserJet printer, I use an ink jet. I always spray mine with some kind of clear coat, like you said light coats. I also have a folder full of stickers, when I put a piece of that sticker paper in the printer, I fill like I need to have it full. So I fill it full of different images for the future.

Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
Well, I finally had a break in work and the weather at the same time. My teenage boys and I ran up to the RC field after work to fly the Traveling Engine. Great way to wrap up a day! We took a few videos and we'll try to edit them and post tomorrow night. Thanks for letting me keep it a little longer. I had a chance to tell the story of the traveling prop and engine, they all loved it.

Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
I can't wait to watch the videos!
I'll think about who you can send the engine to next and let you know.

Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
I just talked to my oldest son and he said he'll help me put together a video tomorrow. I still need to print a couple stickers and take a couple pictures of the plane. Then the plane gets hung on the wall.
Just let me know who to contact to ship to.

Re: Follow The Traveling Engine!
Any news on the next to get the engine?
I still need to edit video, not as easy as I thought. Anyone have a good/easy editor to use?

Windows Movie Maker is pretty easy to learn and does a nice job. It's supposed to automatically upload to Youtube, but mine won't, so I just open the Tube and upload manually.duke.johnson wrote:...I still need to edit video, not as easy as I thought. Anyone have a good/easy editor to use?

I have the Traveling Engine
I got the engine today. I almost took the package back to the post office as I didn't recognize the sender, wasn't expecting any Ebay deliveries, and the paper the address was on said there was medical gas enclosed! But it seemed too light for a gas bottle, so I took a chance and opened it. What a nice package!
I'll take care of my end next week. This is Gunshow weekend.
