Default RE: Reaction 54 Jet Kit

Well, after 2 years I will finally be gettin my Reaction in the air. I posted back in 2008 saying I had bought a bare airframe off a friend, and was looking to get it going... time flies (and other projects took precedence).

I have a brand new Behotec J55HP2 kero start for my R54. I just finished installing the Behotec retracts, wheels, brakes and struts (all top notch machine work, that Behotec stuff is amazing!). I actually just received a set of drawings today from Bruce, although I dont have any repairs to do (the airframe is good to go) just to see where everything goes its nice, and I liek to have drawings for planes in case I need to repair anything.

I am using Hitec 5645 on the flaps, and some 5945's on the elevator/rudder/ailerons.

Hope to have it RTF by the time the snow melts (that gives me nearly two months to get it done) and I hope to fly it a lot this season.
