Oh, sorry I've forgotten to weigh it after completion. I'm rather curious about that myself Will try and get it on the scales tomorrow maybe, it's down in the basementnow, resting peacefully

Managed to get one engine run and two and a half flights today. Still using the 12x11 prop for break in. She really is a very smooth flier. No bad habits at all and she lands very slowly. I cranked up the aileron throw and that's really all the trimming I needed to do, it flies just like I want it to now.

I gotta make a large air-exit hole in the belly pan. I flew a short hop with it on today and the engine went a bit hot and starter leaning out so I landed and took it off.

Here's two pix that show the new stickers I got for it. It's plain black 3M vinyl that's cut in a special machine.
