My magnum (with pics)

[Wynn Robins]

Seeing as all the other Magnums are being posted etc....here is the one I have nearly completed....just need the fuel tank, wheels and muffler.

As it sits it weighs 59.3oz........with the LA46 in front.  I am hoping the 46 will pull it round OK or I may have to go to a super tigre 51.

Looks good Wynn, what did you do to keep it under 60oz?

[Randy Powell]

Wynn,

Very clean looking. I like the colors. Should fly fine with the 46.

Wynn,

Is this a Magnum built from a Sig kit?  Didd you build it as the plans call...what did you do to cut weight?

Hey Wynn,
It looks really good. I like it!! Good to see you did better with the weight than I did. You'll have a good time with it. All monocoat ??

[Wynn Robins]

Wing is built up, not foam.....that saved a ton of weight.....

built pretty much form plan, obviously canopy is a little  different

saved weight wherever possible...lots of sanding....that helps.....good wood is the best start tho.......

wings are done in SIG aerokote......fuse is painted with rattle can lacquers......fuel proofed with a clear coat.

cant wait to fly it....should be fun.......

Hi Guys,
Yep as I thought, Built up wing. Nice Job

With all the Magnums showing lately maybe Sig will ARF the Magnum, you think?

Greg just now starting to cover my Mag Plus. Hopefully pictures next week.

Although the picture was vaporized from the forum, I did see it proir to the problems.  It does look very nice Wynn.     Let us know how it flys.
