Hi Garrett,

I'm trying to get this engine to be something other than an expensive paper weight ! It has some serious issues so the recently completed Reaper is indeed grounded until I can get a reliable powerplant in it. I've been sitting on an MW54 kit for 17 months and I didn't appreciate the fine workmanship of the kit until I took apart the RAM 500. I started the MW54 kit today and will be going full speed ahead on its construction over the next few days so hopefully the Reaper will fly with the Wren soon.
I'll post some pics of the Reaper tomorrow after I get some nice outdoor shots.

I'm thinking of going BMT for a bigger turbine. It seems like Andre is a perfectionist. That would be a refreshing change !
