Larry..    I'm looking forward to the Spad.. Still working on the Fokker. The weather has been nice so not much progress on the wing. One question though..  Do you know of a source for wheels for these planes?

For wheels: Williams Brothers ar back in business. Check with Sig, Brodak or Sam's Stuff and Hobbies.
The SPAD seems easier and my guess will fly better too.

Hey Dan, I'd still like to see a pic of the bell crank set up installed on that Fokker.

Leester..  I'm sorry to say that I haven't got around to finishing the wings on the Fokker. The weather has been good so its on the back burner for now. What exactly do you want to see? The bellcrank mount is shown in my previous posts but the crank is not installed. I'm thinking of changing to a CLC(Tom Morris??) 3 inch bellcrank instead of the kit supplied one. The leadouts will go through a piece of spruce bushed with brass eyelets which is attached to the cabane struts.  I was thinking of putting in an adjustable setup but I'm not sure it would be worth it. Hopefully I will get back to building it shortly..
