Bruno,
Love the plane, I am doing the "Flying Undertaker' F6D. Can you send me an up close picture of your camera port. If possible hold a rule up to the port so I could get the dimensions of the port?
Thanks,

Thank you,
She flew this past Sunday and better than before however I almost lost it again! It happened that when I replaced the damaged fuel I reused the cap and tubing since per first observation it was fine. What I didn't see is there was a hole on the plunger line just at the clunk tube's edge.
I ran the engine on the ground for tuning with a full tank also once in the air and soon as the fuel level went bellow the hole in the fuel line the engine starved for fuel and quit.
I did a risky dead stick landing but got it safely on the ground with just a bent strut.
Already fixed the fuel tank and will machine a strut sometime this week, she'll be back flying this weekend if weather permit.

Mustang Scoop
Hey Chad,
I guess everyone is starting to get out of the basement!
I will have to dig the mold out from somewhere in the garage. If interested I can just sell you the mold as I don't plan to use it anytime in the future. I actually looking to post my Mustang for sale soon I finish to install a new DLE61 (the 3W 70 was not happy in this airframe)
You can email me directly to: [email protected]
Cheers,
Bruno
