Live with Alpha

2-3 a.m. in Europe ... ouch!

Here is a link for your next project Alpha 🙃🙃🙃

Works for me.

Alright friends, so it looks like we're looking at every Tuesday evening at 9pm EST. Post here if that time works for you, and if it doesn't, advise a few other options for the group to consider.

Thank you for doing that Alpha!
You did an excellent job on the CAD walk-through too. Hopefully more people will get interested in using Fusion360, it's such a lovely software to use for designing RC aircraft stuff

[RCjetdude]

Definitely a good time. Very much appreciate Alpha taking the time to share with us. He makes it look easy.

Thanks again, Alpha! This was a fantastic time, and very educational. For anyone that hasn't watched it, it is highly recommended, and be sure to catch it Live next time.

I like Tuesdays, like 8 pm Eastern? Wednesdays are good too. Heck, any day of the week is good!

[Alpha]

It was a good first trial run! Looking through the analytics, there were 54 people who watched at least a portion of it.

What day is best for a weekly AlphaMakes? I'm thinking Tuesday evenings, Eastern Standard? 30 minutes of assorted CAD drafting, Q&A, shop talk should be enough without getting boring.

Speaking of not being boring, I'm jumping onto Andre's RC Afterhours podcast in two minutes. We're talking shop on some balsa projects, gas engines, and a bit of MiG-29 chatter.

Alpha created an account on Twitch.tv (AlphaMakesA) and just hosted a session where he was walking us through how he designs planes and parts in CAD. During the live feed you can hear him speak and see what he's doing on the computer, and you can talk to him and all other attendees via chat. This first episode today was just a trial run to see how it would go, and it was a smashing success (was supposed to only be about 20 minutes, and wound up going 2.5 hours!)! By the end I think we had 20 guys on chat. Alpha wants to make this a weekly thing, so links and announcements will be put in this thread.

You will need to sign up for a Twitch account, but it's free. You can also Follow Alpha on Twitch, and get notifications when he's live. He will post on this thread with further info on days/times for live events.
