Congrats, hope to see some of these at the events. My build has slowed down considerably. I got the fuse built and am finishing the sheeting on the bottom. Could you post some photos of the internal set up you used for your battery mount/tray.

Thanks,
Ed

Thanks from me also, Jeff
That will help with the layout. I was guessing that where things were placed for bal and was very close.
Final will depend on motor. Am very close to placing an order to Don; just wanted to pick up the new printed plans to see if I needed to make any changes and decide if I wanted to cut cores or go with Don's.
Looking forward to a great build next few months.
Mel

Hi Jeff,

my name is Marcelo and I am from Brazil. I was looking for a f3a airplane that can be built by the plans in my humble shop down here. Then I saw your airplane – it’s just great !! Talk about Concourse de Elegance !!! I don’t have much money to so that I can afford expensive models. So scratch built is my only option (but I like it). I fell, with all these informations, I can build the Lightning.

Is there any possibility of you send me the plans so that I can built it ?

Thanks a lot Jeff

Marcelo

Hei Jeff,

Thanks a lot for the plans!
They are a true work of art and engineering. It's very kind of you to share this great work.

Jeff, I already copied the entire thread but I noticed that there are some pictures laking in the begining of it. Could you send them to me or repost in the thread if possible, please.

Thanks a lot again !!
