Hi David, The Silent Kit turned up and I cannot see the 'Cheeks" in the kit? ( sorry about that) They did not show on the picture or the Plan.
It is a 1.20 kit and is 69 inches same as yours.
I am going to go with Spring Airs and build it as a trike. Plans show option for taildragger also.
I am heading to the "FABULOUS" model shop in Palmerston North tomorrow, and will suss out with the "GURUS" what type of Spring air retracts I need.
I reckon that I will probably go with the JETT motor, it looks so tasty......!! I looked at the MVVS motors and they are an option, however I like the handcrafted and factory tuned JETTS.
Cheers Greg
