Progress - really. Last two evenings completed the radio install and am very happy with the fit and balance etc. The aircraft is all ready to go except for two details:

- fitting the bladder tank and a tube or bag spooge catcher.
- saw off the thumbwheel on the NV and make it screw adjustable through a small hole in the cowl

An hour's work tops.

So if we get a break this weekend I can finally maiden the darn thing - hooray! Just in time for winter..

2 x HS65HB
Lemon 6ch Rx, caseless with one wrap of tape
300mAh 1S Lipo
HK step up 5v regulator (the darn things seem to work!)
All up weight is still barely 9.5oz. This thing is going to haul.
