Thats a BAD lookin Mamma a Jamma. I'm going to do a War Bird NEXT winter.. hopefully a 101" Spit fire. (maybe) But for an ARF that sucker looks good. Usually the ARF warbird look slapped together... this one has that "REAL" feel to it. Keep up the pictures!

I picked one up a couple of weeks ago with a Saito 180 RTF, that had never been flown, but I couldn't see myself putting all that glow fuel on that sweet fuse. I'm looking for an Evolution 35 or a ZDZ40

Looking really good, I see you got yoursel an ignition for the motor. Looking forward to hearing what you think about the motor. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

yea i read a artical in one of the mags about someone who did it in electric. in the motor box was a speaker system for a motor sound. i think he was using 4 inch speakers on each side. it was supposed to be loud but, i would have to here it for myself. also it was something like 450.00 for each battery pack.
