Shaun, Nice plane! How did you get it in the front door? I would like to have one just like it, but the "boss" would not let me lean it on the table.

Okay well progress report. I got the motor mounted the cowl cut surfaces hinged and canopy mounted. Here are the pics. I don't think I'll get much done today but tomorrow but this weekend looks promising.

The 100 is very small for this plane. I'm wanting to see how well it flies with this and maybe I can get some other suggestions.

Wrap when will the maiden be? I would like to come down and watch. I'm about thirty minutes north. Madmonkey-I'll pm you so that we can keep this thread about Wrap's plane. |

I don't know when I'll manage to get up there, but it shouldn't be too long. Looking forward to it!

I'm thinking around Sunday Monday. It just depends on how much I get done plus I have a 3 day weekend. But so far I'm waiting for epoxy to dry on the control horns.

Sorry it's been a while. It looks like I'm going to have to postpone the maiden from this weekend to maybe 2 weeks out. But anyway I have made progress. All the control horns are installed. Servos are in and I'll have pics later but the landing gear is installed. But anyway here you go. Sorry about the quality of pictures.
