Default Winter projects

The Q-500 board is a bit slow this time of year- lets post our winter projects.

Here are my first two, another of each will be done before Spring.

Seeker w/ a TT 40 for 424. The color doesn't show true as it was so bright out but it is neon lime green...reminds me of the Kawasaki motocross bikes I used to race, and I figure Daven would appreciate some green on a Seeker.

Hurrikane w/ an OS 40FP for our club slow quickie series (2 pole). We fly 424 rules except the only legal engines are the 40LA or FP.

The Seeker was right at 3 lbs 8 oz, the Hurrikane 3 lbs 7 oz. I hate to add weight but such is life; I'll replace the Hitec 555 receivers with JR 770 PCM receivers, and replace the 350 mAh rx batteries with std 700 mAh and see if that adds enough weight...
