Well out of all the other problems I've been having lately trying to get this plane maidened. I just found a new one a few days ago and had to send off my NIB, only ran once by me DL-100 to get the hub replaced...It developed the infamous hairline crack...
![]() Hopefully I'll get it back and on the plane before next weekend... ![]() The guys at my local field said they were going to start taking bets on what weekend I'm actually going to fly the damned thing...LOL!!!

I figured that I was refering to full scale. I can't seem to find the double M designation. Maybe it exists.

[quote=SportFlyer;816788]Millimeter man!!! It's metric, you know...from the other side of the pond...LOL!!!
J/K !!! Closest I can find is the H9 Sukhoi 26MM with "MM" standing for Mike McConville...I bet that's where it's from... I'm just glad it won't look like this... Thats is correct. The "mm" isnt scale, its added to the name on my Sukhoi design. Shoudlnt be on this one. |

Are you sure its not a copy of your design there MM?
Ok, I kid a little. Since this is so tailheavy have you weighed the tailwheel assembly?

Well no engine as of yet so I guess I won't get to maiden it this weekend either, so the Sukhoi gets to live another day.
Now taking bets on when I'll get to put it in the air...

I can post some pics of a torn apart plane...I got the tank out, putting in the smoke tank and pump...Got everything mounted on the motor box hoping with it being almost on top of the ignition that it won't somehow cause RF interference.

Zed,
Does the fuselage have a hatch on top, bottom ? How do you get to the fuel tank etc ? A couple pics of your internal setup would be great ! Jim
