nzak, those lights are cool... but expen$ive!! I wish I knew what kind of bulbs those are so that I could build my own. Should be able to save some money by just buying bulbs…
The baby is a few days late, so I’ve had a chance to work on the plane a little.
Here are some photos!
stab and fin glued on.
My hitech servos did not come with a big enough servo horn to make one like the plans show. I’ll see if this will work (give me enough throw), but I will probably have to buy a bigger servo horn, or switch out to a futaba servo.
Got my 6 Volt battery and soldered on a connector. My receiver says it’s good up to 6V, but when this pack is peaked it’s at more like 7V. Hope my receiver won’t fry.
Wing bottom skinned, and servo hatches installed.
I can’t help doing mock ups!
This is what I worked on last night, fuselage top.

Oh, I've been trying to figure out how much Klass Kote i'm going to need and here is what I've come up with:
White 100 $20.95 (1 pint)
indigo blue 312 $14.95 (1/2 pint)
deep blue 310 $13.95 (1/2 pint)
gloss catalyst 405 $31.95 (1 quart)
reducer 500 $9.95 (1 quart)
Total $91.75
This is enough for only one coat of white. I'm hoping this will be enough. What do you guys think?
