Oh my, now that prop is a bit intimidating. I want a starter like that on my EVO300 he he, that's sweet.
I wish you all the success in the world with your operation of this aircraft "model," and like everybody else "I wish I could be there."

Something that got me thinking, are you going to use brakes in this bird??

I doubt that it will stand still at idle.

Good luck on your maiden you have one impresive machine.

There are no brakes. On pavement I think it will roll for sure, however on grass it might just sit there.

Did you ever find the rattle? Takes a little bit to start up yet, is it rich? That starter sure zings that prop good! Good luck guys, I have followed this for years....
