YS .63 works... I know Wayne has a Saito .72, another great choice for 4 Stroke.




Of course it is nothing compared to a Menace Plus (there..happy??) but a lot of guys still think they fly kinda good.

Here is mine. I haven't flown it yet. If it's half as good as everyone says it is, I sure I'll like it.

I almost thought that was "JR" on your fuse..until I saw the name on the canopy...spoofin' all the way, just like it should be.

And an otherwise great covering job as well.

All the Sledge's that have been posted look great. I really like Wings (Jim) though. Looks like Mcconville's (spelling?) plane from the TOC...I thought about trying that, but I knew I would screw up the curved lines... Looks great!

Wayne and Chucks are also great. I guess the standards have gone up, i'm screwed now!

Wings, your sledge looks awesome. I love it, be sure to post some pictures of it on the Morris Website. I see you got the new tail too. Did I send that to you? I remember one going to Emporia not long ago. Is Emporia near Kansas City, MO? I was in KC last Friday with work I could have given you a call and hooked up with you. Maybe next time.
Hacker, that carbon fiber gear is from Williams RC, (thats me) and you can email me [email protected] for information.

Jeff,
You, mailed me the tail plans, and sold me the gear. Your support here on RCU has been terrific and is the reason I bought the sledge. I'm about 90 mi. from KC, but that's where I like to go for "fly-inns"

ChuckAuger,
Actually it matches a 29% AW Edge I have, and that is the real Anti-McConville plane. Instead of "JR feel the difference" it's JP see the difference, of course "AeroWorks" instead of "Carden Aircraft", "Brison going Vertical" instead of "Desert Aircraft", Monokote, not ultracoat, and of course Mike has a "Horizon Hobbies" on his cowl which I will replace with "Horizontal Hobbies" Well I guess if you’re going to steal his scheme....Make it your own.

BRW, Thanks, were close enough that maybe I'll get to see you fly your sledge one of these days.
