LOL, not a criticism, just a note that its clearly had some plastic surgery done! I'm impressed - that must have been some work... Do you still have the tooling used to create the low profile canopy insert?

Ha, i didn't notice the euro gear till you mentioned it. I have Robarts, and thumped it in real hard once, (ran out gas landed off strip...~7 years ago.) All the robostruts were buckled and folded back, the retract units and fuselage structure could not have cared less about the mistreatment! She's a tough bird!

So did you modify and beef up a kit, or was this bird a total scratch build?

Can you share any info / photos on what enhancements you made for flat out speed and durability? Very curious, starting my build soon! (bathroom renovation is almost done, gotta keep wife happy!!!!!)
