Default Harrier updated pics

Not really a question, just wanted to post the pics.

Only thing bugging me is the placement of the fuel intake tube. I think I need to move that somehow. Looks like it would flood the Saito 100 pretty quickly.

It is insanely difficult to bend with my hands. VERY light as well.

Forgot to mention, Thanks to Ken for suggesting leader line for the wing support wires. 45lb test, strong as anything, and very cheap.

All that's left to do is install electronics and break in the engine. Any tips for breaking in a Saito 100?

Not yet. Hopefully will maiden it this weekend if the weather cooperates. Will post a report when I do though.

Just finished all of the wing supports. All that's left is the fuel plumbing, electronics and cutting/mounting the cowl. And breaking in the engine of course.

BTW, is that a Spirit/Expo 3D in your avatar pic? I had one of those. Crashed it on Xmas. I loved that plane in the short time I had it.
