Well, I just finished getting it ready to fly. Weather is crummy right now but tomorrow should be better for the first flight.

With the fuse yet to be painted, it's weighing in at 5.07 kilo, just over the limit. But that is with a Duralite 1900 mah battery and regulator for the RC. If I can keep the paint job at 4 ounces, I think there are a number of places where I can shed the extra weight. Lighter spinner, LG, tailwheel, etc. Also, this is with a 10s4p battery. A 3p battery would put me well within the limit.

I've run the motor, and boy does this thing pull! Can't wait to see how it flies.
