Thanks for the pictures Blair, looks good.

Just had flight number 30 on my stock 84FG last weekend, and its running great.
It is still breaking in, and I have not touched the needles since initial ground run break in.
Had one engine out during a landing approach because it is running rich, and the idle speed had dropped because of it being a little more broken in :-)
I like it rich, so I just bumped up the idel speed on my tx.

Would like to make an exhaust ring to bring out the sound a little more...the stock flex pipes are a little tame...... :-)
