Default RE: Dragon Lady is a keeper!

Ed,

I never did get a Dragon Lady, but I still like the looks of the plane. I went to the mall the mall the other day and sat on Santa's lap. I wispered in his ear that I would like one and he gave me a Ho Ho Ho. Of course my wife rolled her eyes at the whole thing.

I think I can make that mod without any problem, I hope. I was also thinking of cutting the aileron and using the center servo hole to make flaps.

I've seen it done that way on a Spitfire and a Chipmunk that I had.

What do you think? Is it worth it? I know the plane lands pretty slow already. I just figure this would be a good platform to learn a few things about using flaps.


p.s. I also told Santa I had a Magnum 91 and a 120AX sitting around so I wouldn't have to buy an engine for the plane. That may be why my wife rolled her eyes; I have a few engines lying around.
