Outstanding build JHMIN!
I had not checked in on this space for some time due to lack of proper hobby time and my shop unfortunately still MIA. I will hopefully get it back in shape over the winter and have it ready to complete some builds.
But who cares about that?! Very nicely executed SM-20. Still my favourite of the small classics along with the Cosmos.
A couple of questions (perhaps a few more actually): Did you get a chance to fly your equally impressive Aurora 25? How did the 35AX perform in the inverted configuration?
I'd love to find an Asano mini TP for my "one of these days" SM-20 build. Do you know where I could source one? How does your VF perform with that MK 9x5 prop and pipe?
Also, please show us some photos of how you installed the radio in the SM. It's a small little model and I sometimes wondered if it would not have been easier to build, manage and fly at the slightly larger scales of the Aurora 25 and Kingfisher 30. Of course, the scale was clearly chosen by MK due to the OS 25VF available at the time.
Cheers, David
