Hi guys,
Today I installed self made scale canopy locking mechanism.
I also glued 950g of lead to the cowl to set CG (150mm) . It looks dry weight 15,5kg for maiden.
Last weekend I went to the airfield for final checks. I had to reposition baffles further back because engine was overheating over 3000 rpm on the ground. I plan maiden flight in 2 weeks, depends on weather.
This is how much dirt is from saito after 2 tanks used on the ground:
