It took about 45 hours to do, but after stripping all the Monocote off of my GP Tiger Moth, installing "near to scale" DuBro 4-40 pull-pull systems, and recovering in Nelson LiteFab, I am pleased with the results.

The rudder tiller arm is fabricated out of 1/8" aircraft aluminum driven by two HiTec 425 BB servos, and the vertically mounted elevator tiller is a CB associates located in line with the rear cockpit bulkhead low in the fuse with a Hitec 70oz. 605BB. I had to install panels in the bottom of the fuse to access both the elevator tiller and the cable exit points on the side of the fuse.

The remodel also allowed me to lower the fuel tank to the correct elevation which cured my little flooding problem. I haven't weighed it yet, but I think I probably gained at least a pound on the model.

I flew the (re)model this morning, and found it to be slightly more "draggy" with the fabric and extra cabling, but it was no problem for the Saito 150 to tote it around, and pretty much behaved like it always has.

It was quite a project, actually. Here are a few photos of the finished product. I still have to trim the model out with some more striping and lettering.
