Richard,
I especially like the landing gear doors.  The stock pants looks more like "bloomers"!
(If you know what that means!)

I am working on mine, the fuse is naked right now.  I will probably use the ST 51 also.
Please report on flight results--prop/fuel/tank etc.

Thanks,
Jim

Thanks Jim! Those struts are 7" long. Long ,skinny legs, just like mine! I had to cover them up with "Disco Pants"!!! x: 

Its jacked up like Crist Rigotti's set up for a 4 stroke!

 I will start off with a 11-7 TF powerpoint and 5% powermaster with a little castor til' its broken in completely.Its got a 6 oz. Tom Morris tank from Jim Snelson(CL Central)..

Are you going to recover the wing and feathers on yours? The stock covering reminds me of 21st Century Coverite, kinda plastic covered fabric. The white stretched fairly easy with heat, hope it doesn't get "baggy pants" too bad here in the Texas sun!!
