Default RE: Another Mid Star 40

thanks Bob,

Because of weight I took the front wheel off.
The tail wheel bracket that comes with the kit is a sad joke, its just getting stuck in the rudder only, and what is being used is this (sorry for the after market announcement)

wheel pants: I intend to buy and use the four star 40 ones, it’s a similar landing gear with the same bolt pattern for the same 2-3/4” wheels.
I’ll get them from sig directly www.sigmfg.com
Also additional engine mounts you can buy only from sig, they are good and cheap though.
motor mounts i'm buying only from them it comes with hardware, i mange to spoil one pair of mounts every build...

Sig’s customer service is very good, they sent me a new wing for 4*40 even it wasn’t their fault.

Who asked me if it’s the same profile as the four star 40, it is, I just placed 4*40 wing on the plans and beside 1/4 “ shorter because of ailerons its identical.

Color scheme now I’m at neon green bottom wing and fuse and insignia blue top, maybe cub yellow I have some pieces of it….
