I would love to try one. I ready want to get my hands on a LT500R AKA quadzilla though. Now they are a work of 2 stroke art.

Here's some photos.....waiting for a sunny and under 30mph wind day to take it outside. You can see the cowl still doesn't match quite good enough. I've had it for now, so for the next year its going to stay that way.

Only 2 things left....

Finish the pilot
Sand the right side of the gear and polish (left side is done)

You ever just have one of those days where your mind does says the right thing and your thumbs do the other?

Thanks JVH for the awesome pics. Now I can enter the TF recover contest!











And now the wrong rudder on landing? Why? Who knows. Only bent the landing gear, cracked a wheel pant and broke a prop. 95% of it is fixed. It'll be ready to fly again by Friday.
