Rune, I haven't decided on where to put the battery and receiver yet but have built two trays for the tank/rudder servo and one for the elevator servo. I also decided not to do the counterbalance and added it to the fuse.

Hey Guys --

Is that a one piece canopy I see on the Temptation? Is that something new? I got an aftermarket one piece to replace the two pieces that came with my kit.

Looks good!

I used the stock one and tinted the canopy. One wing panel left to cover the final assembly. Maybe next week?

Very nice color scheme and pattern Tom! It should be very visible in the air.

tph1 02-10-2005 07:29 PM

RE: Temptation Kit
 
I sure hope it very visible Lem! The bottom is red and white stripes so I will have some contrast also. ;)

There.

Wow, that looks sweet! But for some reason, I suddenly have a craving for Kellog's corn flakes.

Get her done, Ocala awaits!
