52% ACM Edge make over
I came by this aircraft a couple of years ago. Been a long time rounding up parts and a few hundred hours in sanding it down. It was painted in single stage paints which makes for hard paint lines. Servos will be 8711's all the way around 2 on each elevator, 3 on each aileron, 1 Seiko on the rudder, throttle and choke. Spektrum 9100, Fromeco batteries on rx and a Seiko driver (11.1 volt) for the Seiko. Engine is a 3W 275 with a Hemple 37-13. Hope to have it ready to maiden in June. We sanded the plane down. Next we shot a white base coat on everything. Now we are adding color. We have used about 5000ft of tape and about 2 gallons of mixed paint. The last picture is what the final look will be.
