Aero65,
Thanks for the idea. This is the exact problem I was concerned about when using magnets. The idea of a door kicker seems good to me. I think an air cylinder may be the easiest and lightest method. Let me ponder that this weekend. No work done today. My wife wants a pool for grand kids this summer so prepping for that took most of the day. Hope to make some more progress this weekend.

Yeahbaby,
I will post some pics of the F-4 conversion when I get the bugs worked out. It will be in the X45/K45 thread.
Foamie jet for X45/K45 ?
My FW F-22 foamy conversion photos start at post #14 there.

Thanks again to all who offered ideas. Please keep them coming. It is really appreciate the encouragement on this project.
Gary
