Here is what we ordered yesterday, I was able to purchase more than I hoped as my brothers threw in some money for the project. Which means they will probably fight over it when I'm gone.

Tower Hobbies Build-It CA+ Medium Glue 2 oz.
Tower Hobbies 30-Minute Epoxy 4 oz.
Tower Hobbies .46 Ball Bearing ABC Schnuerle & Muffler

Top Flite Hot Glove Covering Tool
2 rolls MonoKote
2 rolls TowerKote
Fuel Filter

Because of the help from the family I was able to use my funds to buy a Hitec radio setup 4 ch on Ebay last night for $100. It is missing servo horns however.

So, I guess I need servo horns, wheels, Threadlocker, a 10 x 6 prop for engine breakin. Foam.
Anything I am missing?

Thanks SoonerAce and everyone else for your help
Jim

Edit: just got the fuel filterand some 10 x props. Still need a 10 x 6 for the break in.

I suggest using an 11x5, 11x6 or 11x7 not only for break in. but for flying also. A 10x6 does not have enough "resistance" (I guess that is as good a word as any) for the engine and the engine MAY over rev with that size prop.

I have had several different 46 engines (and still have most of them ) - Tower 46, OS FX, Evolution 46, Super Tiger 45. Every one of these engines performed best with an 11x5, 11x6 or 11x7 (for general sport flying )
