Default RE: LOOK what arrived today!!! Keecat II

Actually the wing is not that fat, I have a GMS .76 in it I have ended up using 8 channels on it and when the front wheel is folded up I lock the front wheel servo I am getting the feeling its not an extreme speed machine but I will expect it will be quite quick, long and sleek and I bet landings will be hot and fast.....no floating in with this one lol I like this plane because its a little unusual, I have beefed up the wires to the retracts by covering them with cf tube as I have never liked bare wire on it, it has a rudder but being high on the tail I expect it to induce a little roll? still might help with cross winds im going to fire it up with the GMS and see how it flys, if it goes well I will shift up to a bigger motor #1 main photo build in progress, #2 Fuel tank would you belive the manufacturer states the clunk goes to the front? I have a bit of concern about the length of tube required to put it in the right way #3 towards the front #4 Business end #5 the mod I had to do to fit CF on the wheel well, manufacturer says bend the rod to skirt around the well, not the best design, #6 Wheel well out of round had to fill on one side with epoxy and microballons #7 lol Garage is not always this messy just while building :-)
