I have finished two ARC Ringmasters and both are sold but wanted to post the pictures here so everyone who was interested could see how they will arrive. About all the pilot has to do is drill for the engine he is using, install the landing gear (wheels, wheel collars, gear retainer clips and wire gear are included) Cover the wing, Install it, Install the stab (pre-hinged to elevator with dacron hinges)glue on the rudder and put a tank on it. The pushrod is installed in the Tom Morris bellcrank and I include a piece of carbon fiber pushrod and a solder sleeve so the customer can use either to attach the back half of the pushrod to the elevator.
I used contest balsa everywhere I could (mostly Bud Nosen) and have finished sanded the entire plane and applied 3 coats of 50/50 Butyrate dope and thinner.
