Sniper insides and LS150
Well I got after the LS150 Stik tonight. After 2 or 3 hours I have all the parts to the "kit" cut out except the bulkheads for the fuse and the wing is finished! Man this thing goes together FAST... why doesn't everyone have one???
Some people have asked so here is a not so good( my camera has problems going so far in ) photo of the insides of a Sniper DR .049. I hope to have a second prototype done on Sunday. I have the carb off a G-Mark .061 that I hope to fit to this engine.
Later,
Tim

Tim, I'm working on mine as well. I just glued on the wing tips and all I need to do is sheet the center section of the wing, then I'm ready to start covering.
Be sure to measure the firewall opening of the plane. For some reason the pattern for the firewall is too narrow on the plans and you will have to make it wider to fit across the front not between the sides.
That engine looks great, you will have a fantastic climb rate with it.

What, the rotor isn't anodized....
I love that deep blue anodize on the crankcase. Can't wait to see pictures of the carbureated version.

Bill,
This was just a picture of the parts as the second motor is coming together, it's no where near being done!
