Pretty close, I have to make the aileron rods, set the throws and it can be ran to set the pipe.
I come in right at 7 pounds
The colors are probably not for everyone, and I'm not really sure myself but here's the deal............
I don't build stuff to look at it............... or admire setting in the pits area at the flying field.
I build stuff to fly, always and often, so I need to be able to see it, the color scheme has to be visible.
My concern is if I can see it at 2000 feet away or on a long final for a landing approach.
I think this ole gal will look great in the air.......................................

I sure have appreciated the 2 builds of yours which you have shared recently. It takes me back in time but I in no way could attest to being such an efficient builder as you. To you I raise my hat and glass. Thank you for being willing to bare you're all, with us all.

Nice one Rich
Since us Super Tigre lovers are few and far between, is it too late to cut in a top hatch - just in case you ever part with it to one of those egg beater power modelers? 98% of the hobby market being electric these days (give or take) who got lazy with foam in a box, won't have a brain aneurysm about converting it over to EP. You can get a lot more for a model the day you retire it if there is an access hatch on top for their lipo battery. I know I know, stop cussing, I'm with you, I'm just thinking ahead.
Remember when you could buy any width header from Mac's website to match your fuselage? A header and pipe cost more today than the engine itself. It's now a hobby of improvisation, and what Dave Platt called years ago, the principle of scarfology.
