Status: offline 		I has maked Phantom and there are not much parts to make Phantom ready to fly. Maked the cowling of Heineken beer can. I has tried ED Bee at bench running, not satisfied cause too short running time. Then i installed the D-A Satelite 1 cc at nose + an extra bigger tank. Checked the centre gravity, all are ok.

I's been a-lurkin! These Mites are cute as anything but I reckon a man could become an alky cutting out the cowls.
