"Second Plane" build thread, what do you think?
I've been building a Top-Flite P-47 It's coming along nice but lately I've been a little burned out on it. I'm kind of in the mood for a simple, straight forward build to occupy a few evenings a week and pick up on the P-47 again this winter. Anyhow, a while back RCKen did a build thread on a Sig LT-40 trainer. Who would be interested in a similar thread on something suitable as a second plane? I'm going to build something anyhow but if enough people are interested, I will post progress on here. I will try to get plenty of photos and detail each step, answering questions along the way. I am by no means an "expert" builder but I do have a dozen or so planes under my belt that managed to fly well and look half way good.
Since I have a spare OS .46-AX, I'd like to build a 40 size plane. I'd prefer to build a Tiger-2 since I've never built one before but I'll also do a 4-Star, Rapture, etc. if people would rather see that. I'll even let members here choose the covering scheme as long as it isn't beyond my capabilities.
When the plane is complete, I will either fly it or donate it to my club's raffle.
I'll even try to get a flight video when it is all finished if I can find someone who is able to get some decent footage of a moving plane.
Let me know what you think. I'd like to get the kit ordered by Wednesday night so I can have it here ready to start this weekend.
