Work is done! Today I´ve done wear out and balanced it. Dry weight is 8305g. It is approximately 500g than before the remake. Here are the pictures.
Now I must find some good scale pilot.

yes Fiala are very good propellers and cheap.
I forgot to say that I put a ZDS canister on my plane, and now it is not too much noisy. I made a 45 mm hole behing the engine.

This time I´m very close to finish all works on my La-5FN. The fuel tank I made from the plastic bottle from some juice, the shape is very good for the instalation. The air tank is up to the fuel tank. It was the biggest problem, because I had it on the wing, but now I have scale cockpit and between the wing and the cockpit isn´t enough space. []
The last problem which I dealing now is the scale spinner. I can´t found anyone which fits perfectly.

I still think about it, but the easier way is to buy one. And if I made it by myself, it could be unbalanced it will be difficult to balance it. I´ve just did on my CMP Zero.

What I did for my spinner is use the one from the Hanger 9 60 size Bluenose mustang. The shape is a little off but the diameter is pretty close, mine was something like 20 dolllars and for that price I could live the shape being a little off. I painted it with some colour match paint from the local hardware store.
Just a Thought,
Cheers

Thank you for your advice, I´ve just found MBL spinner. http://shop.lindinger.at/product_inf...ducts_id=69651
The shape looks, it could be good, maybe it could be the solution of my problem.

Today I did the first roll out with my La-5FN. During the taxiing I found out that the tail wheel doesn´t work well, sometimes it unexpectedly close, but I´ve just found out the trouble.
I took some picture, here they are.

Thanks Steve!
No, I didn´t fly it today. I must set a mixture on the engine, because I get only 4500 rpm and the other thing is too windy weather today. I hope I will fly it next weekend.
