Bob, Thanks for the link to Nelson. The top Flite kit is a great kit both to build and to fly. I've used it to work out the details, such as engine size, tanksize & placement, ect.
Any suggestions as to rigging? The streamlined wire from Nelsons will be too large for 1/6 scale. I have some pics of restored aircraft rigged with cable, but it appears that all the originals used solid streamlined wire.
Also, does anyone know what the long tube in the center of the cockpit is for? It's not in all of the planes.
