So, finally got it done. Not a beauty queen, just a crash repair with a major engine swap!! Went from a aero tiger .36, to a Bob Reeves Saito set up with the venturi work done by Jim Lee at Lee Machine Shop(quick turnaround I might add.) Have not had much time to fly due to work and weather but so far very, very promising. Now flies like it has a Aero Tiger .51 installed--if such a thing existed--pulls through wind like crazy, just had me giggling. Anyway, very happy so far, will report more as time goes on.
I know everybody likes pictures.......
Kind of built the thing in the air due to the nature of the repair.
