Hey B_L,

My Balsa Nova 120 is about half way completted. The fuselage is just about done. I am using a Magnum 120 four stroke, as this plane will also be a sport flyer.The motor is mounted inverted using the stock muffler.

I really like the way this plane has gone together. The parts fit is great, and the quality of the wood is super.

I have been working on other planes, so put to the BN in the corner, but will be working on it again shortly.

I too added to the rudder and elevator. I did change out the stock two piece landing gear for a one piece set from TTP which are nylon filled.

I know my planes would go together allot faster if I would just build them the way they are designed instead of changing them. It is enevitable that when you change one thing, it effects other things also.

Good luck with your BN, it's a great plane. Post some pictures when you get done, as well as a flight report.

Looking forward to them.
