Default EVO 300/52%Edge

Here are some pictures of my EVO 300 installation, not finished yet, but getting there.

This is the front cone for the engine install

Well the airplane has flown with a ZDZ 210 last year, so its simply a matter of putting things back together, and repainting it. And of course with the snow
gone

Great, keep us informed. We haven't had alot of snow here this year. (i'm about 80 miles S.W. of Chicago)
But it's been too windy to fly-the wind chill is a little cold on the thumbs!

Roger, are you going to get a vid when you fly it?
I'm thinking about starting my 56%Extra build soon and I'm still interested in this motor for it.

Did you say 56%, that is big,

When you say the difference between the two, do you mean the standard 300 and the Magnesium, if so there is about a pound difference.
