Great looking plane... What engine do you have in it ?. The little brown truck brought me one yesterday... Looks great in the box...
That cowl is sure narrow though.. I have a Mag .91 4s I am planning on putting in it.. It looks like the muffler is going to be a challange
without cutting up the cowl though... Any tips you care to pass on ?.

Thanks- I have a Saito 91 in it and it is perfect. The pitch is very sensitive, but what a wonderful airplane to fly! It looks awesome flying and will land so slow that it just stops on touchdown. I started another thread somewhere on here. The building is very easy and straight. Good luck and show some pics when you get a chance.

Thanks... Sounds like I am in the ball park with the .91 at least power wise... How did you do your muffler ?...

well, I was too lazy to order a 90 degree exhaust to attach in between the head and muffler, so I just routed it out the side. There is not enough room to send it out the bottom without the 90 bend. It looks ok though. I flew it today in about a steady 15 mph wind gusting to about 20. Very stable but really a challenge with all that wing area. You will love it.

Sounds like a great plane... I will probably just run it out the side too... Got to get this shop cleaned up... Promised myself I would before I started another plane :-[
