Good luck with it. I had a ball flying mine. Just watch the clearance on the prop & all should go well. Gonna have to check around for a taller gear for mine.

This is what I have done. I have a Brison 3.2 with 4 Hitec 5645 digitals and 1 hitec 5745 on rudder. I do not have pushrods on it yet. The engine is mounted and the servos are installed. I hope to fly it in the next 5 days. Still need some parts. ( pushrods, bigger wheels) Here are pics that people have been bugging me to get done. The prop that you see is a 21x11 carbon fiber one of a kind prop. Comments wanted.

Jamie

Sorry if the pics are the best quality

Hucheneer: DUDE! schweet!!! Did you make that prop? Looks like a carbon vess! Pilot looks good too.

Youngflyer: I see you are not planning to fly 3D by the throws you got on your elevator, do you fly IMAC?

pic 1- my friend fashioned a piece for the choke, its going to be manual, no servo!
pic 2- shows where the ignition is mounted and i have two filters on there
pic 3- shows the interior, i have to clean it up but in the end it will be nice
pic 4- shows the tank tray, tank, way i mounted it and my vent line (no spills!)
pic 5- this has much batter geometry and i drilled the clevis out to 4-40 for the strength however i have like 25-30 degrees of throw (i will upgrade later)
pic 6/7- this is the pull pull with stock horns and the stock tailwheel (very high quality!)
pic 8- new firewall and blinds
pic 9- isnt the red firewall nice lol, no spinner yet but i will eventually get a 3.5 " spinner and a mejzlik cf prop
pic 10- another ignition photo

i plan to get a cf prop, spinner, gear and tube. upgrade to cermark or mpi switchs, swb arms, and duralite lipos. i will slowly upgrade when this plane proves itself and when i build my savings up. i have a 600 dollar budget on this plane in about 3 months. withen a week or two i will go up and down this airplane and scrutinize everything good and bad.

damien, i will upgrade to longer arms with more throw when i get sullivan horns. the geometry i was looking at with 1.5" arms was nasty, almost dangerous. i just want to fly it for now and upgrade later! i do however have tons of throw in the ailerons!!!!

5" holy crap man. I got 3.5" and its ok with a 22X8 menz. BTW you should fly it with the wood prop for the first cupple of flights just incase of a prop strike. its harder on the wallet to replace a carbon prop than a wood one.

and do your elivators hit the rudder controll hons when fully deflected?
