The wing and stab cores and planning for the retract and aileron servo cutouts.

I intend for the models to be as close as possible to the full size in terms of layout concept. Both will have retractable trike landing gear and I will use dual outboard digital servos for the ailerons (this is a deviation from the original '80's model). For the retracts, the electric version will have Robart mechanicals while the glow may have Robart pneumatics (not released yet) or Spring-Air series 600's - I haven't decided yet. I may fall back and use mechanicals on both for simplicity sake and to keep costs lower.

Aileron and elevator controls will be run with Hobbico CS-110MG digital mini servo's while I'll be using a Hitec HS-82MG in a P-P setup for rudder. Retract and throttle (for glow) servos still to be decided. All will be run at 6V either off a separate BEC from the Lipo motor pack (probably 3S/3200 mAh) or via a 2S 800-1100 mAh Lipo or A123 pack for the glow version. The glow will likely use a Hayes 8 oz slender tank.

Modifications to the fuses will be made to both models (they'll be a little wider) but particularly to the electric version which will have a FW moved forward by about 1/2" among other things. This will allow greater ground clearance allowing 10" props to be spun. I hope to be able to make the necessary changes to allow the glow version to also spin 10" props.
