Bri, I'm going to be running diesel and Kingtech oil also, but I see they changed the mixing ratio to one quart to 5 gallons of diesel, same as kero. But diesel is still way cheaper and it has more power.

I have been tinkering with my F-18, not much flying weather this year, winter was bad and now it won't stop raining and the wind is 15 to 20 most of the time. It's almost June and I have not even been in my pool yet this year!

I wonder if Damo260 got his tailhook installed? Here is where I installed the servo, just a mini servo with a control rod from a micro flyer, works good. You can get at the servo from the wheel well.



I also finished my exhaust cones, you can see that I added an extra panel line to the first ring:



I'm almost done with the rest of the equipment install in the nose section, so won't be long!
