Appreciate the opportunity to get a NIB Whiplash from Dirt Dummy.

Finally got my Whip painted. The weather has not been great Temp and Wind wise.

My Whip had some issues that I believe are fixed but only the RC Gods know for sure. The rails were cut out for a larger engine but the original owner shelved the project so aircraft ply was epoxied in and cut for the OS 46. The skin has several bubbled areas mostly on the left close to the elevon. Had seen in one thread that the elevon tore off. My elevons were also stiff. So I did the mod recommended by LGM graphix by cutting the elevons free and using Robart Hingepoints. They are installed using Hysol. Great movement with no binding. Will let paint cure will did the Orange today and then final assembly.
