Default RE: CAP or Extra?

Tell me about it, I called GP and they are sending the cabanes for the skybolt but just this one time, in the future, they qouted, if it is missing something other than what they listed is not in the kit, under scratch and dent, it's not going to be covered. But at least I got them to send out the cabanes. It also looks like the Balsa USA smoothie will get put on my other building board and started as well, I have another group build to do, I think it will be 3 of us doing it. That's another oldschool design that flies great but man, not for the faint hearted in the speed department. Sure, the smoothie looks innocent, but it's a rocket, doesn't really lose speed on final either. Well, I just arrived at my brothers house to give him his early B-day present so he can work on his street bike, I got him a 300 pcs craftsman tool kit, but it looks like I'll be rebuilding his carbs again on the bike. He left the gas from last year in it and it varnished the needleseats on the floats, so now his crankcase is filled with a 75/25 mix of gas and oil, the 75 being gas, so much that it's coming out the case vent.[]
