Thank you very much! It's a heavily modified dynamic balsa kit as it was made to fit the Yellow Zero and this is a CMP...I hand made the dash and used instruments from iflytailies. I was pretty happy with the way it turned out. I wasn't trying to go too crazy, I just wanted to at least represent the cockpit area well.

It's been a couple of years since I've visited this thread. Some very nice photos of some very nice planes page after page. Always nice to see the photography skills here.

I recommend a plastic keyboard cover to keep from ruining the keyboard from all the drooling you will do!

Nice. I went, for a bit. Forgot my waders and managed to only get a couple of pictures. Probably get demerits from the best-scale-photo gods for this

Are you talking about the guy that had the bags taped around his feet and legs? I'm glad I bought the waders while I was there.

]Very nice model,interesting & unusal subject, and good pic. I wonder though, why the right side ailerons are - top deflected up & bottom deflected down. I don't think I have ever seen that before.

Good eye Ken! Looks to me like both upper wing ailerons are deflected upward and both lower wing ailerons are deflected downward. Although it is hard to say for certain regarding the left lower aileron. I would be interested in an explanation as well. I'm guessing maybe both upper ailerons are set positive at neutral for a bit of effective wash-out and the lower left aileron is up although it can't readily be seen in the picture.

You really did a beautiful job on that build ARUP! I remember watching it over on the sailplane site.
