After getting back into the hobby I was surprised to see that Hobby Lobby was still advertising the Sr Telemaster with the same old photo I remembered from the 80's. The chick in the pasture shot. I had to build one for old times sake. My wife gave me the kit for Christmas and my Mom and Dad gave me a Saito 82 to power it. As you can see the project is moving right along! I plan to install a candy "bomb bay" and a glider tow hook. Dual aileron servos installed in the wing so I can mix flaps. 4" tires for soft field landings! Thinking about moving the rudder and elevator servos to the tail.
I built one of these two years ago and it turned out just as nice as your. It was a lot of fun putting together and the 95" of wing was fun navigating it through the house without adding haner rash. Also did the same as you and used dual aileron servo's. With all that wood work I had to let it show and covered it with transparent orange Monokote. Looked really nice on a bright sunny day. You're going to love the way that this thing flies too. Very majestic to say the least. I put a Tower .61 on mine (money was tight at the time) which pulled it very nicely. Spent most of the time flying at 1/3 to 1/2 throttle.
Very nice work. So let it show....
Cheers,
