Thank you very much for the kind words,, it has been a fun project to say the least. I am planning to have a video of the engine run hopefully by next week but will have to wait until spring for actual flights. Too much snow here and cold ![]() Roger

When you need something that is not easy to find a lot of the time it is better to custom built just what you need and want ! At least if I design it myself and built it myself I know what I have ! If you know what I mean.

Well my friends, the building of the Laser is basically finished, I would like to acknoledge those that were instrumental First, Hayes Hutchins for the Wren Turbo pop engine Second , Jack Strickland for the plans of the Laser. Third , everyone that contributed in a small or big way, it is well appreciated. I would like to offer also, if anyone would like pictures that I might have not posted or taken for you, let me know and I will do my best to accomodate. I will also post some pictures with the airplane completely assemble outside of the shop but will wait a bit for the temperature to rise. Is there another project in the works??? Stay tuned , I might ![]() But be sure it will be another plans built and this time I think I will have to draw my plans since I haven't found any plans I can use but that's another story.... Roger

Roger, Wait till you see what Red Aero RC has done additional to them. They really look knock out super! I believe you'll be proud. I have claimed these jewels as our PREMIER FUELER offering. We'll carry a std o.d. (McFueler's) and a large tubing fueler- RARC's!! I'll post a pic this weekend - or keep a watch on our website!
