As soon as the winds calm, I will be flying it. Larry started using automotive paint on it, but the paint that I got
didn't match, so I sanded off as much as I could and sprayed dope.
One more thing I had to do, really the first thing, was to cut out the Expocrank Larry had made for this plane.
He made a few, and someone tried it in their plane, and the pull test showed that it wasn't strong enough.
I think that's one reason Larry put it on the back burner so to speak. It took a lot of thinking to get it out,
install a new bellcrank floor, new leadouts and new bellcrank, but it worked out very well. Only cut the canopy off
right at the fillet line, fixed the bellcrank issue and glued the canopy back on. Minimal fix to the exterior.
Having gone over what plans there are for the MoBeast, I can say that this plane is larger, mostly in the fuse length,
slightly revised rudder shape, and other details. The MoBeast is pretty much a full fuse MoBest.
