Well, I too was one of the lucky ones that got a GP Christen Eagle for Christmas. I'm in no rush to get her together and to tell you the truth, I haven't even opened the box yet. I have however, downloaded the manual and have reviewed it a couple of times now.
I would like to start this thread that pertains ONLY to the building, suggestions, upgrades, modifications, pictures and comments relating to the Great Planes Christen Eagle. I've been a participant in other forums where the topic seems to wander into unknown regions of somewhere, far from the original topic[sm=spinnyeyes.gif][
]. I'm hoping this forum stays on track.
So, after reading some of the posts in other forums to date, this is what I'm planning for my Eagle:
DA-50 For Power
Change all CA Hinges to Pin Hinges
Get Rid of Stock Tail Wheel Set Up
Things I'd like to be more informed about before I start building:
Methods for Setting and Checking Incidences
Available Carbon Fiber Landing Gear?
So, let's all participate and have fun building this beauty.
