Rotccapt,

I built this kit some years ago with not too much experience, a very good kit, and flyes well, but must be careful with weight because due to short nose moment is easy to get a heavy tail plane. Also I covered it with solartex+paint, so the weight was too much. With a 91 fx needed a lot of lead on the nose to balance it, and I felt the plane was lazy.

Now I changed all Solartex for Oracover, reinforced Plywood of firewall and landing gear, and made some lightening on tail: changed wood pushrods for sullivan rods for elevator and Cable pull-pull for rudder.
Also installed a saito 150.
I hope this will make my Stearman perfect for flying, I still haven´t finished it so I can´t make any Flying report.
