Frenchie, I mainly posted these for you to see how it came out. There is A set of racing wheels for it, they weigh the same as these I have in the photo but are more stream lined. I don't really know how much bigger engine could fit in this little plane, that 55 took up most of the fire wall and I had to build the cowl around it. The owner said he may have A smaller spinner for it too.
I will be going tomorrow to UPS and see about shipping it to him due to his location and the fields he has close by it may not get maidened for A little while. I will post up when I get the word.
Good catch on the cut down ailerons, did it to the elevator too, should have no flutter problems with it at any speed the way they are set in. Covering is all in one piece too so no hinge gaps at all top or bottom. I put the wing halves together upside down and flat on my bench so it is almost straight.
Now to find out if it will go around A corner or not.
