Curt:

You're wecome for the compliments !

You've done a very thoughtful job of converting that trike geared Kadet Senior to a "Taildaragger" ! And, once again, it looks GREAT in my opinion.

I am in the process of "eyeballing" everything ( as well as procrastinating ), as mine will be electric powered, with taildragger gear / floats, a hi-res still / video camera, and a vieo downlink camera / xmtr / battery packs, etc., so there is a lot of info to gather. To say nothing of waterproofing the electronics ( which I have down pat ), but still a lot of variables. The "rules" say it should be swinging a 16 in prop ( although I am going to attemp to reduce that to a 14 in. ) so as to not have the gear / floats look too gangly. It's first life will be a ROG taildragger configuration, no cameras, and I will go from there.

Your input has been most helpful, and I thank you for that !!

Thanks a bunch,

Russ

Your ship also looks great, and as Curt's, has those same nice proportions / lines !!

Thanks for the input,
