Hi Simon, It's good to see you have succumbed to the Xcalibur. I have been working on mine on and off since February but hopefully will have it finished soon. I have just got to fit the fuel lines to the turbine and sort out the batteries, the rest is in or ready to go in. I think the fuel pump will be the last piece to go in, Wren have advised me to run some oil through it on low voltage before I attempt to start the turbine for the first time, this is because it has been in storage for 12 months.

I went to Greenacres Fun Fly yesterday, I kept my eye open for you but didn't see you, I guess you were too busy hinging your new bird. There was a couple of jets there, a Boomerang Élan and F15.

I hope all goes well with your build and you keep us updated on your progress.
