I got a little done on the cub today. Since scale is out the window I'm just going more for function and try to keep it as clean as possible. I decided on how I would get air flow to the engine. I used the fake engine and added a vent to the front of it as well as an exhaust tube to make it look a little better. After I get this installed I'm going to anchor the plane and get some numbers on the engine heat before I cut anymore. I think the exhaust tunnel will be enough outlet. If not the laser thermometer will tell me.


I threw together a sweet little custom transmitter tray today while glue was drying on the cowl vent. It balances perfect with the DX7.
