RE: Seagull Spacewalker II 120 Arf
Hey Matt... I've mowed a bit of the runway in my time.
Locked in by bad weather and nothing needing repaired in the hanger and having cycled all the batteries and everything else I could think of, I had to choose a project and did so today and started work on a Nitro models 73" Yak 54 instead of the Spacewalker. I'll use the 28cc motor that was test run last week. It will have about three inches of ground clearance using an 18" prop.
Most of the reason is I think I'm growing keen on a DLE-20 for the Space Walker and don't have one on the shelf yet. I really wanted to start a longer project than an arf and do have a couple of kits and a scratch build ready to go with plans, wood, wheels and dummy radial but I'm not fully retired yet and am too tired when I do work to build much.
And... while shut down from flying this week it looks like, we get several decent winter fly days here in NE Texas.
