I'm just putting the finishing touches on the world's slowest build!

How have people attached the canopy?

I currently have the canopy set up with 2 pins at the front lower corners and the latch...

Ignore my last. It was just a slightly tight wing tube and with a bit of wiggling it now fits perfectly. I'm glad I didn't cut the end off the wing tube now:D

Most of the 'building' is now done on mine and I just have to finish off the air/receiver installation. I have just tried a dry fit and it seems like my wing spar is about 4 inches too long. Did...

I agree about the lights and I probably won't fit mine either - I may fit them later on after I've got some time on the finished model. I feel a bit robbed that I was sold a lighting 'kit' but all it...

Nice. Mine is the same but I have dark blue instead of silver.

But where do the wires go inside the wing?

Have you made a hole in the forward wing spar (e.g. near the aileron servo mount) or have you routed the wires over the outer wing tube?

Thanks very much for the pictures; that's pretty much what I want to do.

I assume that the cables pass through a hole in the forward spar? I can't see how else they can route from the gear/servo...

Could I please ask how people have routed the servo/air cables in the wing? I would like them to exit the wing root forward of the wing tube and I see many others have done this, however there is no...

Thanks very much for the info. I now understand most of how the canopy latch mechanism works. Do you just loop the bowden cable though the spring? Does the ball outside the fuselage flap around? I...

Not really but I'm short of TX channels and the matching for elevators and flaps will be quite handy (and I like the look of the graphical battery monitor). I may yet change my mind again when I get...

Thanks guys. I won't bother with a gyro then and will probably go with the Cockpit SRS Powerbox that I already have. I may leave the lights until a later date but I'll see how brave I feel!!

I can't really comment too much as I don't know the details of your transaction.

All I can say is that my one-off colour swap model was quoted as being a 12 week build. Due to Jetpower and the...

Well mine has arrived :D

1) The nose steering is pull-pull whereas I would have preferred direct drive, which seems to be becoming more...

Would this model benefit from a gyro? Is there any tendency for it to fish tail? It looks a little short coupled so I don't know how 'solid' it will be/

I'm trying to decide between a Powerbox...

What are the opinions on turbine choice?

I have a P100 that I was going to fit but I'm also considering a Merlin 140 or Jetcat 140. Will the P100 have enough power? Is the airframe strong enough...

RE: Tomahawk Viper Jet

I'm considering a 2M Viper Jet.

What Tomahawk accessories are a 'must' and which are optional? I assume the pipe and fuel tank are needed. What about the hopper tank (VJ 05_01) and ruder...
