Ok, I'm officially reopening this thread.

I never had a project that lasted for so long 10 years +, yeah, I know shame on me, this is the same kit that started this thread.

Now with the Reaction under the belt is time to finish the Turbo, the only thing I need to order is the canopy, I secured a K80 v1 for it, most of the nick nacks I have in my inventory, the retracts came from a Fei Bao T-45 that I had over 12 years ago, the wing was modified to accept them, one thing I did was to enhance the main gear mounts to spread the landing loads, other than that it is build stock, ah! I added the extra bays to the tips to reduce the wing loading.
I'm shutting for a 19lbs to 20 lbs for a dry weight, will see
