Default Super sportster .60 is Finished

Well, it's all done except for the wheel pants. Those still need a little work. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the way it came out. The rudder pushrod is binding a little so I'll have to work on that before Saturday but everything else is working nice.

I fired the .75-AX for the first time tonight. I just barely touched it with the starter and it fired right up and idled. Another OS engine that runs excellent right out of the box. It could probably stand to have the low end a little leaner once its been run awhile but nothing major. Just sitting on the ground, I can tell the power is going to be great. I normally tie planes to an old brake drum to run them but this one would drag it around on the concrete anywhere above 1/2 throttle. Nothing wrong with power. If you are thinking about a .75-AX, don't hesitate, it's great.
