my computer fried, going tomorrow to try to get replacement parts for the burned hard drives to try to salvage stuff off of them... will be getting a new computer in the next month sometime...

ok, just need to get the trainer type plane programmed in a radio now and get a battery mounted in it, still unpacking so I haven't found all of my parts yet, but I've done most of the reworking on this one. It turned out to be a 19cc engine on it, that got pulled in favor of a ported 21 I had already converted (have 5 spare 18-21cc of these things already trimmed down, a couple have prop hubs and all need modified mufflers), the engine on it had the newer style spring attached muffler that's heavy to start with then they soldered a 3/8" copper tube to the back of it for an outlet, that muffler wasn't light... so I opted for the old style that is held together with the springs without the baffles, welded the stock outlet closed then welded two 1/2" tubes to the outside, looks kinda cool if I do say so myself... throttle rod is now goldenrod. need to stiffen up the tail wheel spring then it's ready mechanically.

haven't gotten any further on the stick yet, engine is in place but still have yet to add the wing extension in the middle.
