Well, my late winter-early Spring project is finished. I think with all of the redesigning, changes, decorating, water proofing the entire air frame, I probably spent over 50 hours on it. Yeah....lots of time, but I know when I hit the gas.....she will be solid. Not only that.....it is my relaxation therapy. When I am in my shop....no one bothers me....I am in my own little world. My improvements are: #1 Did away with the bell cranks on the ailerons and used one servo (HS 85 MG) per aileron. Fabricated servo hatches and covers. Used extra long fiberglass servo arms.
#2 I installed all the electronics in the turtle deck for a few reasons. Makes the body lighter, the weight of the battery is close to the wings so I will get a faster roll rate, I am putting floats on her so the water will not hurt the electronics if some should get in the fuselage. #3 Added a Perry pump to the 40 four stroke because I used a larger tank and mounted it down in the fuselage. The tank is 10 oz. the old one was 4 oz. I did not want a fuel delivery problem with the tank being so low. #4 I use carbon fiber rod instead of bamboo skewers for the rubber band dowels. Also added a carbon fiber rod thru the rudder for extra strength.

OK.......enough talking.....how about some photos?
