Yep, I'd love to see some more details of that plane. They're a great warbird - shame they get overlooked by most manufacturers.

Thanks,

Cam

Thanks for the pics.

Status: offline 		BobH he is checking for divets cause there ain't any of the other things ! May be he is just scared of my landings.

Paul, I used the plans hinges. Jerry Bates drew out scale hinges for ply or G-10. The thickness of the aileron with the hinge on the bottom makes for easily hiding the horn inside. I dropped a rod into the fuse for the pull pull rudder so its hidden also. Thanks for the compliment Paul. Denny and Jeff have builds on rcscalebuilder that show lots of detail. They have very nice Wildcats.

I have some IRF type hinges but have not found a good use for them yet. I don't think they will work well with a recessed hinge line.

Joe, once again nice shots of my Cat. I think the Saito 450 was the quietest liquid fueled motor at WOD.
