Quigleywins, I just noticed that you are from down under. While I was in the Navy I did visit your beautiful country. I was in Perth for 4 days and had a great time. It's was the first and only time I saw a real live kangaroo, amazing. The people I met there was very polite and very helpful if we needed directions to get around. The only country I've been to where people would sign up to take us sailors around to show us the country.
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to you and your fellow countrymen for a plesent time I had in your country.
Enjoy the build and keep us posted.

Hi Rich and all my Brotherhood friends,
Just finished my BUSA Smoothie XL build. Here are some pictures. I did a build thread on this kit . My screen name is Check6. Plane weighs 15 lbs. powered by a Syssa 30 gas engine, Hitec 645 mg bb servos and 2000 ma battery packs. Waiting for some nice weather to fly.
Thanks,
Fred Menna Check6

Check 6 you have the painted makings of a nice plane, I also found that Balsa Kits allow to change their 1/4 scale J 3 into a beautiful super cub with some work. I had to redraw the tail end using scaled down actual drawings of the real plane, the rest of the plane is pretty much off the plans, I did half to add the flaps and a great paint scheme to top it off.
