Off topic a little. You use your battery as tip weight and just lenghten the wires?  Can you add text to a couple more pictures of this plane?  Say the bottom?  I'd like to build a AMA profile with a Wiley .36 and maybe go 2.4.  I have the MO-1 plans and cores, but I have looked at a couple of your other drawings.  I don't like the look of the MO-1 all that much.

There is a second layer of silkspan over the receiver under the SLC, but that's it. To get to the receiver I'll have to cut into the covering. If I do it neatly, I can just put a clear sticky patch over the incision, but then I'm not expecting to have to cut into it.

I know, the fuse mounted gear doesn't look right. Somehow, it doesn't seem quite as bad on the Hellcats. But it does look better with the airplane finished. You'll see this weekend.
