Do you have any (non-dev) hobbies?

Not sure if following fits exactly this thread, or if we should have a hobby thread…

For many years I’m designing and building model airplanes. Due to lack of time, my last own design was already 10 years ago :scream: Last year while still commuting before the pandemic I started a new design, with the first draft looking like this:

warp01
warp01640×423 26 KB

This slowly evolved into this:

warp03
warp03640×481 54.6 KB

And just now into this:

warp08
warp08640×286 58 KB

Hope to have it flying in spring :slight_smile:

I finished work on the jet yesterday, and with perfect weather I did the maiden flight today. Everything went well :smiley:

Maybe now I’ve got the time to continue with reading the erlang book :stuck_out_tongue:
