Title: Finished the Lil Duper Zilch
Post by: Andrew Borgogna on May 14, 2013, 01:32:27 PM

This was the kit I stumbled on at the local hobby shop.  The only part from the kit I used was the leading edge and in hind sight I should have made a new one.  It is also the plane I had the problem with the paint wrinkling up, in short it was not a fun build.  Anyway here are some pictures, the only thing I need to do is make a canopy and I am waiting for Eric Rule to return from vacation to pull one for me.

It has flown three times, with the second flight having the best engine run.  I am still working out some trim issues, but all in all it should do OK once trimmed.

Guys I am as confused about this posting as you are.  The one I thought I posted yesterday is titled "Finally I finished the Lil Duper Zilch" and it has the correct pictures.  This is something I posted a few weeks ago when I was working the engine for the Zilch.  I tried to remove the thread but the computer knows better and won't let me.  Sorry for the confusion, but I am as confused as you are as to why it popped up now.
