Got this photo from Bob today. The second photo ship is ready for action and now we're just waiting on the weather to cooperate. Using a plane with an inverted engine and having the camera out on the wing a bit should help keep exhaust residue off the lens. The ideal set-up would probably be a tuned pipe. The black area in front of the cockpit is the battery pack and the transmitter is under the canopy, and yes there is a little area missing on the back of the rudder but it doesn't affect the flight performance. This was a second hand ship ( we don't even know who built it ) that was a little rough in spots and the main concern was that it be functional and looks weren't a high priority. The wheels are plastic discs with a groove around the edge that a large O-ring fits in. They came with the plane.
