Default RE: Electric Byron F-16 Build

ORIGINAL: CastorTroy2150

Thanks, Does this mean that if I can find a F16 byron I should scoop it up? I know of one but it has fixed gear and a Nitro ducted fan, I could convert it to Electric, but how hard was it for you to get all the old paint off? Anyone know how hard it would be to convert to take retracts like ya'lls?

If you think you may be interested, I have one I may just part with. Fuse is completely stripped of paint, and all foam surfaces are ready for covering after some minor filling. OS91 large head with fan & pipe. Engine will probably need disassembled and cleaned up. Have the Byron starter wand and plane is outfitted with retracts on the mains with BVM wheels & brakes. Full flying stab addendum per Byron instructions has been started, but needs to be finished out. Has new canopy and I believe I still have the original also.

If you will notice my location, probably within driving distance for you.
