Tim, I downloaded the K & W manual for the EIII some time ago and found it very helpful for my project. This is what gave me the idea of placing the servos and tank on shelves one above the other. It is really a nice looking model -- and an ARF to boot! Makes me wonder what I've been doing all these months!

Thanks for the description of the flight characteristics. I'm cheating with mine and using ailerons (this was LONG LONG AGO IN A GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY a BUSA kits) since I'm not a skilled pilot. I've done a lot of rudder and elevator only flying on the simulator and am hoping this will come to me aid when I get around to flying the EIII.

BTW, I'd still like to see some close-ups of the gear, tail, and cowl. Actually, if you don't mind, would you just send the entire plane up to me in California? I promise I'll return it after a few hundred test flights.
