not really, all servos are in, but i need that leaflet about the flaps....my flaps need some modification cause the horn was placed to far into the root..comp-arf has a mod. saving money for the gear and the rest of the stuff...and i haven't had time to finish the paint job....weathering and clear coat.


Jet power is on this weekend of Sept. 16-18 and the 200 lbs Saab gripen which is 25 ft long crashed.....performing a knife edge...

60 FT. of servo wire so far, installed the Quad servo set up in the the horizontal stabs and balanced all servos with the DX-18....
Rudders are done, slats are done, flaps are done, I'm done...lol 4:47 in the am...time to go to bed...

Bought an air brush kit to complete the weathering , so i can finally finish the scheme and throw the clear coat...

this jet is on my bucket list now, just got other things first.
