Default Enlarged Ziroli Swoose

Just about ready to fly, this Swoose is enlarged to 72" span, power is a Thunder Tiger.75 4c, weighs about 8 lbs, wings, stab and rudder covered in antique coverite; fuse glassed then all painted with Klasskote Epoxy paint finished with clear.

View from the top



Rear quarter view



Front view. Two lines hanging down are fuel overflow (3 line system), and breather line from the TT.75 which exits through the backplate.




Way too much time carving, cutting and fitting that darned cowl. Engine is inverted and buried so a remote glow driver is used to get fire in the hole.




A build along with lots of photos is posted on the forum of our club, Georgia Model Aviators's, web site go to: http://z11.invisionfree.com/GMARC/in...?showtopic=193
