Default RE: U2 Spyplane

That's excellent news glad to hear you got your pitch issue sorted.

I got mine all fixed up the weekend, the nose is back on and glassed. All the cracks have been fixed, Ironically the nose looks better then the last one. I have been thinking though and your flight input confirms that I definitely need to get a 120 for the U-2, for me this would actually make my aircraft lighter as I can shift the motor way forward, I can the place batteries etc... over the CG, and have the 3 Liters of Fuel in front of the Ducts.

On a different Note, Entirely...
For all those prospective U-2 Builders who can't find plans. I want to know how many people would be interested in a Copy of these Plans. I'm not promising them immediately, because I would still have to draw them finished and do building notes, this would be done using AutoCAD. I don't usually distribute or sell my plans but it there is enough Interest I don't mind Finishing the plans off and Selling either a printed Version or CAD file. Let Me know if you guys are interested and I will make my decision on that.

I am currently drawing a plan for a BAC lightning MK6 roughly 1/8th scale for either Methanol or Electric 5 inch fans. This I will make available as there are other that have drawn the plan and Don't want to sell copies, really sad, so I have drawn a copy which is almost Complete. Take a look.
