That plane is simply bad to the bone. Have you came up with a cost yet?
Looks like a good home for some DL engines. You could really save some money there.
Can you give a run down of what radio gear will be used to fly it.

WOW! I can't wait for the B-17 kit. Nothing against the B-24, but being from Memphis, I've always had a soft spot for the B-17.

A quick correction on the servos. The flaps will have JR 8611's instead of the 4721's. With a project this large we'll spend the few extra $'s for a little stronger servo.

Plane is looking great John. Chop, Chop, Lets go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mind blowing fantastic! : You really should consider bringing those bones to the Tiano Monsters airshow in Lake Wales Fl. this Oct. 17th.

Hey John, Will you be machining the retracts for this project or farming that mechanical element out to others?
