Looks awesome Tony. What's with the holes in the bottom of the cowl? Were the mufflers u got DA mufflers or ones that have angled exits or something. My aileron servos came in yesterday so I'm going to fly this weekend. Are you still planning on going to Venice? If so maybe I'll drive down or something depending on how far it is and if Ivan is going to be at Ocala or not. -Kelly |

Well, I had a talk with Max Blose this morning and I'm going to build my own Dalton Extra 260 from the kit version. Man, this is going to be sweet. Just gotta sell the Wild Hare Ultimate now. Any way to get delivery of the kit between March 11th and 19th? Last edited by ben_beyer; 02-23-2006 at 09:57 PM. |

I was going to wait till Sunday but couldnt stand it so I went out today and got a couple flights. The finished weight is 26.5 to 27 lbs. I weighed it the other night and it was 24.5 but still needed a prop and spinner plus batterys. It took one click of up elevator and that was it. The cg feels good where its at. It was blowing about 10 to 15 so I didnt really do any triming. Im going to fly some more on Sunday if the weather is good and try to get some video.
