Nothing wrong with that
@thenated0g - scarily fast! No brakes on this one!
This is fun time for me and foam is cheap. Pm me the info and I can at least get some test cuts done to see.Never been a fan of those pop up canopy brakes. Maybe some have had good luck, but generally just makes the plane very unstable.
Nate - I had bought some of that René wire, but never actually used it. Sounds like the software is doing things pretty well for you. I will say the wire temp control on my old machine was a very nice feature, but not sure many software packages can support it. It basically does the same as you, it monitors the amperage and adjusts. I had noticed most of the movement was at the lead out. I just never used such a large lead, almost always blocked to the airfoil, but this means you have to adjust for the kerf in the cut. The wire super heats when not cutting, and then cools as it enters the foam. (I know you know all of this, just saying it for others that may be reading along.)
Maybe you can start making some Slope Money kits for me. I have the rights from Adam to produce the kits again. They were a really fun little EPP plane. Would be really fun in pink foam - so light!
