A picture is worth a 1000 words...

Looks nice! I'll do the same.

Thanks,

That looks cleaner than I would have expected...nice job !!! Here are a few picks of my well beaten Venus with a MVVS .49
I decided to try a few days ago. I had wanted to try this setup when the plane was new but was scared to try it..Now that I'm about
to throw the airframe away I had nothing to lose. Keep in mind the install could be a lot cleaner if I had taken my time and the
airframe were new...

I am on my second Vensus, both have had OS 90 four strokes.
Can you say Vertical, it is one performing airplane. It need about 4 ounces on the tail to balance.

I'd like to try my YS 63 in one or get a Saito 82... That would be a sure ticket for some knife edge loops that didn't fall over the top...
