No, I Just Enjoy Building Planes. I Like That They Have Fiberglass Planes And It Does Cost A Arm And A Leg. If You Really Look At All The Planes I've Done Builds On There All Fiberglass Planes Besides The Winter Time Foam Jets

Thanks For The Info I'll Look Into Those.

I'm Using These, Cause I'm Going To Have To Modify The Fix Gear Area Most Like Having To Remove Some Ply And Re-Expoy New Fitted Wood Blocks.

It's Going To Be A Challenge.

Got The Maiden Flight In Today I'm Pretty Impressed.

The Maiden Flight Was Awsome.

For The Nitro Planes Formost 550 Pusher Prop Jet I'm Using A E-Flite Power .15 Motor W/ 9X7.5 Prop & E-Flite 60Amp Esc.

For Power I Used A 4 Cell ThunderPower 25C 2600mAH Lipo.

On The 4 Minute Flight I Only Used 1400mAH Out The 2600 Lipo Pack. So With This Setup I Could Easily Get A 6 Minute Flight.

Look For My Next Flight Here Soon.

I'm a noobie to rc, but lots of time in full-sized planes. I've seen many of your posts and videos, and I just wanted to say that I admire your skill, tenacity and obvious passion for the hobby. Knowing that you like fiberglass kits, I was wondering if you had ever considered doing an electric conversion with this: http://www.nitroplanes.com/sese6070alra.html One of the most beautiful planes ever designed, IMO. I don't know if you're in to flying off water or not, but I think you'd be the guy to engineer and install scale retracts on this model.

Thanks Much .

I don't know what the problem is...the link is correct, but doesn't work for some reason. If you copy and paste it manually, it does work. The kit is the .60 Seawind, 70" wingspan.
