I'm most likely going to use a wrap around Pitts style muffler. Just not sure if it will be Slimline or Bisson. And yes I will keep everyone updated as I go. One word of warning though, the build is going very slow due to school, family and work. If there was an award for the worlds slowest build I would be the grand prize winner!! LOL. I do however plan on trying to get the engine mounted to motor dome this weekend. I will post pictures if I do.

well just weighed the plane, fuse weight with horizontal stabs is 16.8lb, guessing on the wings each are 1lb so 18.8 without servos not bad eh. plus servos will prolly put it at about 19.2 plus fuel somewhere around 21lbs rtf

I have the same plane in a different scheme and love it! It is the best flying plane I have owned to date.... Mine has a 3w 70 single with an MTW can and it has plenty of power.

I know its been a while but, here you go my friend. I still need to get a muffler and a spinner and the plane will be pretty much complete.
