Larry, What is that between the Power Expander and the SWB Tray? Is it some type of regulator? It looks like it has a fan in it. Thanks

Ron, that`s a Smart-Fly Turbo regulator...It`s a dual failsafe Reg that supplies 17.5 amps, Definitly overkill for this plane, but I don`t see the things I`ve been building lately getting any smaller!!

Thanks Keith!! Get Moving!!

Larry... How far are you from flying it? Also... Do you know yet what header and can will fit the 30% without hacking anything? I have everything but this for it... She'll be a quick build... PS- its a DA50.

She Flys tommorrow! Ran the engine today and fine tuned the controls a bit...I really like the Hitec programmer....The aileron servos are matched perfect throughout the full range of travel with no binding at all!
Here`s a few pictures of it completed;

Larry, that really did come out awesome!! Its so nice when people actually build a plane with the quality that they should be built. Your placement of things and your attention to details will sure pay off on the end. Good luck on the maiden and let us know how it went.
