Default Getting ready!

Here is a pair of Gnats I'm building just waiting for the fuel tanks to show up and to install the radio gear. Can't wait to try them out!!!

Looking very nice... I like the colors you decided. Did you use the same color on both top and bottom of the wing?
So what engine are you planning on running in the birds?

A lot of pictures got lost in the recent upgrade to some new servers. I don't know if they will come back automatically, or if people have to re-post them.

I've been using anything but reg, fuel tanks for years now. Just find something in the size you like at the drug store (preferably a small shampoo or rubbing alcohol bottle) empty the contents, insert one of your used fuel tank rubber neck plugs and voila! Fuel tank! No waiting....
