Default RE: The RCFW Hellcat Group Build

No test flight today but lots of taxi testing. Everything worked flawlessy with the exception of my fuel fill valve which was leaking and, I suspect, is allowing the engine to suck air. It still ran well, although it would not hold an idle as well nor was it quite as responsive as it was previously, so I decided not to risk it. That, and I still want to have pictures taken by a friend of mine who has some "proper" camera equipment. Speaking of which, I apologize for the "schmutz" on the lens in the pictures below. I will get a new fill valve in it this week and make plans for a test flight next weekend if possible. Fingers crossed!
