Is it cooler up in S.A. Bob? I'm still working indoors, 95 deg is still too hot, but getting better !

It is nice and cool at the moment.

Looks great! I don't know if its been mentioned but was this designed in CAD? or just drawn out? If so what program did you use?

Just an update here.
We all know about Bob's sickness here about things on diets right? Well I heard he even went to the extreme of putting power plant for the 55%er on a diet and look what happened.LOL
Good job there Bob
Dan
And the proof.

The original for the most part is drawn out in Auto Cad, but before covering, all will be done in Master Cam.

I finished up the canopy frame today, other than the canopy itself that is, so on with the stabs tomorrow.

that fuel tank looks tiny, but it just goes to show how cool this project is! No huge fuel tank needed!

I almost put a 2 litre in, but I don't compete so not really needed for my needs.

Bob, at this rate, you can scratch build a kit faster than some people put an ARF together

You can build a kit faster than you can fully lighten an ARF for sure. It took me 3 months to build the 40% working on it every day, and it took me 4 months to put the H9 260 on a diet and finish it, also working on it every day.

Its the same 48oz bottle thats in my yak with the 170 and with the timer set at 12min. I land with between 1/4 and 1/2 tank.

Looks good Bob...

Bob, All i have to say is WOW! you are a remarkable builder.

Thanks again for the kind words guys. I just like to build really, but I also really hate covering and that is still ahead of me on the beast.
