Finally it is my turn to put my Viperjet together.
I been working on him for about 3 weeks with some interruptions but that ok considering my jet buddies are cool guys [sm=thumbup.gif] and independently of who's the plane's owner, we really have good time at the Jet-Lab all afternoon after work.

I really enjoy every minute of building a jet model, and even knowing the Viperjet does not need any modification at all, I just could not resist the temptation of giving my personal touch to this babe. So is up to you to do take these ideas into consideration, or even better, to improve them [sm=thumbup.gif], welcome

Speed Brakes
I decided to cut a different shape than the already marked at the fuselage.- This system use a hinge system made out of 1/8" brass tube and 4-40 rod. Is removable and very strong, also adding a good cool look to the model [8D].-
Instead of a servo, I'll be using 2 air cylinder and a jetronic double action valve [8D]
A template is available and i'll posted here if someone request it.
The installation is not ready yet, so later on will complete the details adding more photos.-
