Is [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_5121587/mpage_2/key_tiger%2Ccowl/tm.htm]this[/link] the one you are talking about? I had intended the same thing when I ordered the kit, but as I have the Deluxe with retracts, I soon found out there is not enough room between the nose gear mount and the top of the firewall to mount the engine sideways. So I have no choice but to go vertical with the engine. [

Speaking of wingtips, I'm changing the 45 degree bevel design to a round tip. I did some measuring with the balsa blocks in the kit and found there is enough basla to make a round tip with them.
Yep - that's the one - and the place I found it too!
I will have plenty-o-room as mine is going to be a tail-dragger.
I'm also going to do the same with the win tips. I had previously done that with my T2. There's more than enough wood in the kit supplied pieces. Unfortunately, one of mine has a pretty nasty split in it, so it will take some filling and gluing along the way. I'm also going to see if I can hollow out some excess material from the center of the wing tips. THere's no real benefit to having solid blocks out there slowing down the roll rate!
