Default RE: Black Magic v2 builder's thread! *Updated*

Gas why not. OK Mike here is the plan, almost there. I am building a Black Magic v2.0 and by all my calculations I should be well under 11lbs. I have secured an ES pipe and am currently waiting on my engine to come from the Netherlands (MVVS 26 gas) should have it in the next day or so. Merle Hyde is making the mount for me and should ship out later this week. I have already received my header from Karl Mueller and now only waiting on a few other small items. The plane will be set up with lithium ion batteries both for ignition and receiver. I did not glass and paint the fuse as I wanted to save weight just in case I needed the two or three ounces. If all goes well and comes under weight then I can glass and paint later. Should be flying in two weeks. This could be very embarrasing if this flops....
