Status: offline 		Hi All,

Everyone of us has had to learn from our errors ommisions and experiances. Building a model from scratch for anyone the first few times is a challenging task. This forum give us all a place to share with, and learn from others. As we progress and gain experience many things become second nature to us. When someone asks about the seemingly trivial tasks on a project we often forget that once upon a time, that tasks was not so trivial to us either.

Don't get discorage and think you cant build it. You are building it now! You will ask fewer questions and have stronger oppions on your next project, and the next, and then one day, you too will think that some of your questions were trivial. But then, only the experts find trivial questions... And when you truely master the art of scratch building, you will find that with all you know, there is always something to learn!

Again, don't get discoraged. The world needs more scratch builders. It is quickly becoming a lost art. Stand up and take pride that you had the fortitude to complete a difficult project, that you can stand next to your plane and state truthfully, "I Bult It From Scratch!" and take pride in the job you've done. Your efforts will pay off in many ways. None more noticable than the envy of your follow ARF pilots on the flight line...

So as we say in the Midwest, Cowboy Up and keep cranking out the saw dust :-)

Sincerely,

Cowboy88

Status: offline 		2 1/4oz sounds good. I use a 2oz for my .061/.074 powered planes. The larger wheels wont hurt if you get light ones. I fly off of grass and I use 1.5" wheels, but it is kept very short.
