Default RE: Four-Star 120 build getting started.

Hey,here are some pics of my Four Star 120 that i finished up a few months ago...engine is a 25cc homelite weedwacker conversion i did my self with parts from wackerengines.com...over all it was an awesome plae to build and it flies like a dream!i mounted serovs in the tail to counter-balance the engine weight,beefed up the firewall,and adjusted the cockpit a little to make it flow better with the turtle deck.kinda like a cap or edge...havent gotten the final weight but im guessing around 15 lbs...the engine is about 4 lbs but the plane handles it fine and dead sticks are gentle...good luck to everyone building..the only hard part about it to me was sanding such a huge model..i used a power sander for the thick fuse sides and did the rest by hand...covering is a little hard too..anyways,keep it up...Dustin
