Ok so I'm a sucker, but I bought this vintage (late 70's) Tiger Moth on, of course, Ebay. It's got a 33 inch wing, supposed to be 4 way kit (yeah, right!). Of course, I'm going to rc it.

Well, I got 1st glue on it tonight. Started the upper wings. I have to laugh at the alleged "die cutting" this model barely has the part outlines die cut! And when you look for parts on different sheets, you find some so soft they cut like butter and others made out of balsa that cuts like PLYWOOD! OMG what have I gotten myself into?? LMAO!

Anyway, I can see that this build is not going to be quick, and it's going to take a lot of thinking (sheet plans and not much use) and engineering to install the rc components, but I'm up to it. I have a few brushless motors and I think one of them will be a fit. Probably be a good thing to go electric with this model. Less vibration and no greasy mess!

I'll post updates along the way. I'd love to hear from anybody with comments or experience with this or similar models.
