Not yet. I am building a new engine stand for it. Will probably have it fired up in the next week or so.
Will post video when I do.

Awesome!! I will watch for that. Not many of these engines out there and I've only seen one at warbirds over the Rockies 4 years ago , a 160 on a BalsaUSA Stearman. It ran great

Nice Details. Have you looked at the possibility of adapting to Sierra struts made for the balsausa 1/3 Stearman kit, I assume it require considerable structural changes.

Yes I did but the change in the airframe was too drastic....may do a second one in the FAR future and give it a try. The bent spring gear really aren't bad to look at and will be plenty strong as long as the pilot does his job

Nice work. I've ordered the decal package from Callie's.
I hope it looks as good as yours.

Meant to ask you, did you find a blue paint to match the covering or did you have it custom mixed?
Thanks.
