Hi again Feep,

Sorry to hear about your "oops"! Glad to see you're rebuilding though - remember they always fly better after rebuilds so it's worth it! One of the Aussie's at the last F4C world champs campaigned a 1/4 Eindecker with scale wing warping, and he reckons it flies fine - certainly looks good in the air by all accounts.

I've re-soldered the U/C and un-siezed the wheel on mine(weird - just looked like some grit got in there and jammed it solid, and I suspect my poor ground handling was because of this) so just a quick re-paint of the U/C and we're away. Next task will be to fit a smoke system. Will try to get some flying shots next nice day (winter here remember!)

Cheers,

Cam
