Default Finished at last!

Well my auction aquisition is finally finished.

I bought this plane at an R/C auction back in October for $95.00. It is a Balsa USA Citabria Pro that had never been finished by 3 previous owners, I finally prevailed and completed it. Considering the amount of work that I had to put into it I probably would have done just as well to have built it straight from the kit!

Oh well, it's done and now I have to wait till spring to fly it!

It weighs in at 12.75 lbs. and is powered by an O.S. 1.60FX with a Slimline pitts muffler, swinging a Zinger 18 x 6 prop. Covered with Monokote and Lusterkote paint. Radio gear is a mix of Futaba and Hitec with 2 600 mah batteries and switch harnesses used for redundancy and 1200 mah total capacity.

Hope everyone likes it.
