I too have picked this plane up from ebay. i have yet to really dive into it but am impresssed so far with the overall quality. I am going to check my other bolly gear to see if it will replace the stock setup. Either way, its got to go... way too heavy.
I will also order some gator stab adjusters for the tail section. I feel this can only help making final setup changes and trimming easier.
Will try to help Inchenol with filling up his build thread here as I get into the plane further.
Power wil hopefully be a mintor 170 to try and keep weight down or OS 160 to keep cost down. Depends on which way this thing heads once i get started.
Always land wheels down.
