Passport Build
 
Well today my Dad, Steve ,and I started building my brand new Passport. Everything went together great. We were able to get the motor mount installed and the rudder servo. We also set the incedence on the wing and tail. Doesn't sound like much, but it's a start! I'll upload images as soon as I figure out how. By the way this is the fist time I started a thread so sorry for any problemshttp://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/js/f...eeth_smile.gif

Wow Jacob,
Your Passport looks just like a 90 Inspire!
Dude there were no Ca entrants in Intermediate at the Nats. You should have gone.
Next year!

Yea I should have but it is to long of a drive.

I dont know if my passport will be able to make weight. We only have the motor in and it is already getting heavy.[:o]

I have to thank the second guy steve for all of his help! He was a tremendous help in mounting the motor.

Great job, so far, Jacob. We look forward to seeing it in Napa in 2 weeks. Tell your Dad to get back to building... :D

I don't think it will be done by Napa but if it is, I would have to fly it and get use to it.

Geez Jacob, hold out for at least $120!
Better strap those batteries in tighter than in your 737!

I'm not as worried about the batteries being loose as oposed to our wing being loose.
