Hi Mike,

it's 78 7/16 from the tip of the true turn to the back edge of the rudder. whew....

also in that last picture of the plane complete with:

all wood - nothing left to build. landing gear, canopy, canopy frame, all composities, YS 140, Hype ARIS mount, spinner, adapter, apc 16x11 -

I am at 7 lbs 2 oz.

So I am guessing what the additonal 5 JR servos, carbon nomex mounts, JR 649 RX and ext., 2400 lithum, reg and switch, MK links, clips and horns, MK tail wheel, main wheels and cental axels, Tetra Tank, plumbing and final finsih will weigh... ?? - that is all that is left....

I am hoping to get the cowl and chin finished tommorrow....

cya, dean
