Default Telemaster 40

Well, my dear ole pappy once told me, when you fall off the horse, get back up and on her back again! So after the untimely demise of the project before this one, I have under taken a new project. I was going to wait awhile before starting another thread, but I enjoy posting and being of some help for someone else who is looking for a answer to a build question.
I have been struck by the Telemaster as being a great build and a good plane to train on.
I started by studying the plans and instructions until I felt I had a good grasp of how this baby goes together.
I also purchased another set of plans from a fellow in Texas and they follow closely the ones that came with the Hobby Lobby kit.
I am adding the mods as pointed out in the instructions for using a larger engine. What motor you may ask, a Saito 50.
I have always wanted to put one in the nose of an aircraft and this is just the project for it.
One area pointed out is to add webbing to the stab and that is what I am doing @ this time.
I will post photos soon. I believe this makes 3 threads going on this design.
