Yes I am planning on removing some of the beam slots. I also thought of removing some of the firewall. Although there's no need to do this for cooling on this plane as the batteries will be either on the wing, or under the gear. So I would put clear covering over the holes that I make in the firewall.
Time will tell really. Right now I'm placing an order with Central for some hardware. The stock stuff is ok, don't get me wrong, I just like what I always use.. That's the only reason I am replacing it.
Canopy came out good. Did you notice it's the same color you use Derek? Thanks for that.. lol
You are welcome. All I did last night was dream of finishing my Element now... you are making it look easy. [8D]
I plan to use the exact same motor/mount as you - when you used the Budd mount, how far away from the nose is the prop washer? It seems that if one did what you are doing the prop washer would be recessed and won't be close to flush with the nose.
