Hi Hellcat lovers. This is Fred Menna #42 from RI. Did a little overhauling on my Byron Hellcat. When I purchased it it was done up in drone colors and painted with automotive enamel. Very nicely done but weighed a ton. I completely stripped the airframe back to bare bones and then cut the whole tail section off from behind the cockpit. I then rebuilt the fuse stab and elevators, fin and rudder using Jerry Bates plans scaled to fit the Byron Hellcat. I not only got a tail that was 3 1/2 lbs lighter than original but also more scale in the process. I then repainted the plane in the Alex Vacierou scheme using house paint latex mixed to federal standard navy colors. Graphics were from Callies Graphics. Enjoy!
