Done!

Well just about. The only ting left to do is install the missle rails and balance it. I'm holding off a bit to see if I can figure out a way that will keep the missle rails on in flight but come off without breaking if I scrape a wing tip. After fixing the ones on my Yellow F-16 a number of times I finally removed them. I might make some aluminum skids that will keep the tips from hitting the ground. That worked rerasonably well on my Gripen.

I took the F-16 out in the driveway and fired up the Wren SS a couple of times. Everything worked like a charm. There was too much snow and ice to taxi it around much, but it tracked nice and straight for about 10 feet and the brakes seem to work fine.

Now the worst part is waiting for spring so I can fly it. Here's a couple of pictures.
