With that kind of nasty talk, you can delete those plans I just sent JR. It is an orange and black airplane through and through!

<span style="color: #ff6600">Orange </span>is good!

That's better!

Although, losing to LSU is one thing...Sacramento State is another!!!!

Ouch...but true!

Nice build Jeff. Don't tell Vern, but I might have to get a set of plans from you and scale them down about 60%... Something to hone my skills with around the aerodrome...

first prototype is finished. Monokoted in BLACK Waiting for maiden...

Very nice, looking forward to a fight report and some more pictures.

Jeff,

After the last two weekends, you might want to consider additional color schemes..

Arch

Well, Corvallis has kind of taken on a slight shade of black and blue here recently... mmm hmmm...

Hello Jeff:

Jeff This is Lynn Burks in California and I would like to obtain a set of prints or pdf of the prints. What is the procedure and cost or should I say how much do I send you for the prints. Thanks Lynn Burks ( [email protected] )

Lynn,

Check your email.

LIGHTNING PARTS AND WINGS ARE NOW AVAILABLE!

Just in time for the winter building season, Eureka Aircraft now has CNC cut fuselage parts available for the Lightning. Wing and stabilizer cores and printed plans are also availible. If you are interested in building a Lightning, you can now do so without the hassle of cutting by hand.

Here is the link:

We're getting ready to put our order in for a couple/few!

Thanks Jeff!

And thanks to Don Turnock of Eureka as well. Super fast turnaround from CADto CnC to order ready.. Thank you Sir.

Jeff:

Congrats, hope to see some of these at the events. My build has slowed down considerably. I got the fuse built and am finishing the sheeting on the bottom. Could you post some photos of the internal set up you used for your battery mount/tray.

Thanks,
Ed

Here are the photos of the interior.

Jeff:
Thanks very much. They are quite helpful.

Thanks from me also, Jeff
That will help with the layout. I was guessing that where things were placed for bal and was very close.
Final will depend on motor. Am very close to placing an order to Don; just wanted to pick up the new printed plans to see if I needed to make any changes and decide if I wanted to cut cores or go with Don's.
Looking forward to a great build next few months.
Mel

Lightning fuse + Dave Snow wings.. woot!

Hei Jeff,</p>

Thanks a lot for the plans!
They are a true work of art and engineering. It's very kind of you to share this great work.

Jeff, I already copied the entire thread but I noticed that there are some pictures laking in the begining of it. Could you send them to me or repost in the thread if possible, please.

Thanks a lot again !!
