theb1bman looking good what do you think your empty weight will be compared to a stock empty weight and did you install a spare system in the wing and formers or bulkheads in the fuse before you joined the two half's also what oz weight cf did you use. I finished my modified TJ which is now called the AURORA.I had hoped to maiden last week but discovered that my choice of motors lacked kv was too high and would pull way too many amps using the rite prop for the thrust I wanted. I am now using Just Go Fly 550th for the first stage of sorting things out, plenty of thrust will make for a safe uneventful launch. I will be making a plug of the Aurora in order to make a glass version of it once all changes if any are finalized . The pic's show two different canopy's one for show(semi scale look) and one for GO(low profile speed canopy)and yes I know the props are backwards it was just a photo op.
I'll say it now if you haven't flown a FJ that's streamlined before your going to SHOCKED at how much smoother and more control you have. I wish you would post some build pics. as you work is just ....well......I'm speechless[X(][X(][X(][X(][X(][X(]
