Guys we still have the ML 2 meters available.
I've out them all on sale.
We have a combo with the ARF Version of the ML 2M, either an Eflite 180 or a Himax 210 Pro 20pole (lite) and an Castle Creations Edge regular or lite.
If you pick a Hacker A60 7S motor I'll take $85 off on the deal.
Call me and we can discuss the options.
The ARF's we have and the ARC's are all on sale. When they are gone they are gone!!!!
ARF"s have a silver side now. If anyone has it I need a picture posted please.
We have extensive experience with this plane. It's a really good plane. At a bargain! It flys on rails and looks great next to any plane at the field.
Get yours while they are still in stock!!!!!!

Below are 3 pics of my 2M Monolog while flying at a contest in Winston-Salem, NC last season.

Thanks guys.

Those pics were taken by Tesa Jones, wife of Roger Jones, out of the Charlotte, NC area. In addition to taking those photos, she put together an awesome video slideshow w/background music from the D2 Pattern Championships in Oct. 2013.

I'm sure you'll enjoy watching.

After a long winter of being holed up in crap weather that video did my heart some good Kevin. Watching my friends at a contest is just what the doctor ordered for this rainy and snowy day.
It won't be long and we'll all be out there doing what we love to do.
Thanks for the share. Mike

How much up or down and/or right thrust have owners been using and did you use any washers ro achieve it or is that how your firewall was set up? How many degrees of down elevator are you carrying not taking into account any extra down elevator you may have mixed in at idle? Where did you end up putting your CG relative to the leading edge or wing tube?

Just watched Alex Shim fly one of these with an O.S. GF40 Gas 4-stroke. It wasn't overwhelming power but more then adequate. With a 20 ounce tank it flew for 30-minutes. Had to do a pilot switch in the middle of the flight!

The GF40 is heavy and with lower output than the piped GT33. The GT33 is the right powerplant for Gas Pattern; as light and strong as a YS175. Ten ounces=20 minutes or 3 Masters schedules;

Hopefully Alex has no issues dealing with peanut gallery comments about hogging the flight line....At my field, I try to be a good neighbor by landing after 1 1/2 Masters schedules when E-guys are waiting. But I still hear dumb comments from the uninitiated.

Hi Tony,
What sort of exhaust system and prop did Alex have on the O.S., if you remember?
Thanks,
Dean

I really didn't check out what he was running. I know it had the small stock muffler on it and Alex was talking about putting a different system on it. I don't know what prop he was using other then he has not tried many different ones yet.

BJ have a really friendly service and they were very willing to ship the kit directly to me since they don't have a dealer in Europe.
I suppose other customers from Europe are quite welcome.
I'll try to post some build pictures as soon as I have some free time to get my hands on it.

For now here are the links for the manual and setup for the 110, they have sent me

Does anyone have English translations of these instructions?

I have them in Korean, but would find it helpful if anyone has the translated versions.

Many thanks
