yea motorman...that cauk cracked as soon as I fired it up,well it didnt carck. it came loose from midway to the rear on both sides.
Ive run the motor before...it came off my 26 year old royal stuka. The muffler Im using is a pitts, SLIMLINE. for an os 91fx. Same exact size.

FIRST REAL PROBLEM ENCOUNTERED!:
Im using a hitec hs75 retract servo. Was gonna fly it yeterday, but the servo quit working. Off to the LHS , got another and the same problem....servo totaly quit after about 6 cycles of the gear. Obviously, this servo is not gonna do the job. I'll be looking at better servos this week.
Glad you fixed the wing saddle...........what a pain and it shoulda BEEN right.... Its hard to beleive a company would send out a cowl like that.....what a joke for quality control;!.
Oh well keep us up to date!
thanx
