Well, we're ready to fly. Mother nature is even cooperating...
BUT
My helper's vehicle ISN'T.

His van conked out today, so he's tied up for the day working on it. going to try to find another helper AND some good weather later today, or later in the week.
============
In any event, did get test run on the DL-50. Fairly impressed, so far. Wasn't at all difficult to start, seemed to pull quite strong, and didn't have to touch the needles...really looking forward to seeing how it performs.
Plane came out about 1/4" forward of the specified CG, which is probably a good thing from everything I've read.

Final all-up RTF weight is 14lb 3.2oz.
Maiden report coming when it happens.
