RE: How do I start this thing?
I have all the ducting, its just not in the model right now because I have to replace the servo's. The inside needs some tlc for sure and I'll take care of that, don't fret, It'll be air worthy before it goes up. I'll probably run the engine on a test stand with that fan to see if the engine is working fine and then get a new one. Seems there's a few parts around (noted above). The rest of the airframe is in good shape minus a few skid marks on the exhaust nozzle, so thats not a problem. The gear is in good shape, and retracts nicely. I'm not sure is I care about the gear doors, all I bought this for is a little more experiance over prop jets before I load my turbine into a jet. Lots of people go straight from prop jets to turbine but I thought I'd go the extra step. G3 is fun and I can fly the bajesus out of every turbine on it but a little stick time on a DF would really boost my confidence.
Thanks for all the info people. I'm taking it to heart.
