Well, after almost 3yrs, my Texan is finally done; at least to the point that it's time to see if it flies. Here's some info to go along with the pic

Finished in full scale scheme called 'War Dog'. Owned and flown by John Collver who flies the air show circuit in California

Built from a Yellow Aircraft kit
WS = 101" (1/5 scale)
Weight = 36.5 lbs (6lbs are nose weight; yikes!)
EME 70cc boxer twin
8411 servos all around
Working flaps, navigation lights, landing lights go on/off with retracts
Robart pneumatic retracts
Full panel lines, rivets, Zeus fasteners, etc details
Full cockpit details
Nelson Hobbies Paint
Graphics are mix of CallieGraphics and ProMark

Maiden date is TBD (kinda hot still here in AZ and need to put some gas through this new engine first)
