Default RE: Hangar-9 Sopwith Camel Build Thread

My Camel is ready for an engine test run. Iinstalled the fuel DOT and routed the plumbing last night. I also turned the weight around so it wouldn't interfere with the cowl. I drilled it off-center and I'm now I'm glad I did. I plan to put a 2 oz. Higley hub on the prop shaft to add a bit more weight up front. I also have a 4 oz. if the 2 isn't enough. She's balancing just a tad toward the tail and I think the hub will do the trick.
The cowl fits snug with nothing rubbing that Ican see or feel.
