Thanks for the responses. I do have a club instructor lined up, but he'd like to get together after the build. He's wholeheartedly supporting me through phone calls until then.

Am headed out today to get a Coverite 21st Century iron to eliminate all of the bubbles on the plane. Seems like an excessive amount to me.

I do have another question for those that view this, what are valid glow plug replacements for this? Just want to stock up on a couple for my field box.


Also, what's "tri-stock"?
