LOL! Congrats on the new plane Bunky! It looks cool! sorry bout your extra. It happens to all of us at some point. Good luck getting it back together! Have fun with the new toy.

Whelp............. I done it!!!!! I decided on a tailwheel...... I submitted an order to.................. J&J!!!!!!!! Outta be here in the next month!!! Just givin' the J&J guys guff, that's all. Theirs was a grand total of $2.40 MORE than the White Rose. But why not spend the extra $$$$. That $2.40 more better go towards a pair of grafix!!! HEHEHE!!!!

Now, just gotta sell me 3W 100 with mufflers, and 2 sims in the swapper here!!!! C'Mon guys!!! Help a guy out!!! Still need to buy a few servos, a prop and spinner (which will be a carbon spinner from TBM).

Think today, since I have no money for anything, I'll get down to the brass tax and fiddle with the covering. Corners are lifted all over the place. Good thing it is MonoKote!!! I have a bottle of trim solve I can use as well!!!! Started on the throttle servo last nite. Need a little bit of ply to set my 3421 servo on.

Yeah, I know...... Need pix..........

Things to buy........

Servos.
Prop/Spinner combo.
New soldering iron (butane iron isn't working).
Prop bolts.
Carb bolts.

Be careful with that trim solvent. It is Ultracote not Monocote. I am not sure how Ultracote likes that trim solvent. With the built in baffling I had to use 1/4" spacers on the motor so you may need to do that for spinner clearance.

[Bunky F. Knuckle]

I figured that I would have to space out the motor.

It kinda shines like it is MonoKote....... Shoulda known better.........

[Bunky F. Knuckle]

Everything I have ever covered has been in MonoKote..... This just looked like it had a shine to it.....

Once I got to going over the covering some with my iron, I then confirmed it..... YUP!!!! UltraCote.......

I can't stand UltraCote. Oh well!!!

But anyways.... I got the covering laid back down, and removed all the covering off the top of the vertical, and sanded it down a little for rudder clearance. Put the 1 piece of trim I didn't ruin back on, and glued the rudder to the airframe!!

J&J tailwheel will be here this week, along with a new soldering iron, and a AR9000 Rx I bought off a dude on RR. Cut some 1/4" spacers for the 157 at work this week, that way, I can permantly mount the engine. New bolts for the 157 are on the way from AI, as well.

Yeah, I know.......... Still need pix......

Thanks for the order. It will ship on Monday. You won't be disappointed. Send us a picture when it is installed. If you were here we would install it for you.

[Bunky F. Knuckle]

I believe that!!!! There will be pix when the TW gets here, and going thru the install process.

You bet, Wreck! Wanted one of those TW's for a while now, and pulled the trigger!

[Bunky F. Knuckle]

Just ordered the Bendy tip prop from Xoar that Chief sells. Can we say, NOIZE!!!!!! 30x12 baby!!!!!! Just need a couple hundred extra bux...... Servos and spinner!!!!

[Bunky F. Knuckle]

Pix coming this weekend!!!!

Got the motor spacer installed, cowl trimmed to fit the 157/170 STD mufflers. New J&J TW installed. Picking up a H9 Sukhoi 31 to fly in 2 weeks, gonna finish breaking in the engine, and huck the _uck out of it!!!!

[Bunky F. Knuckle]

Ok, guys....

Here are some pix that my g/f took Thursday nite......

Got the engine mounted, new spacer blocks on, mufflers mounted, and cowl set on. Going to build a cowl ring for the cowl over the winter. I will deal with the blocks on the cowl for the time being. I will be installing a 32oz tank for the time being. Since I just happen to have an EXTRA Bennett tank from my 35% Carden. No more smoke in it!!! That'll give me fuel for about 9 minutes of flight. Servos coming soon, once I get some $$$. Also got my J&J TW in and installed!!!

Pix slowly coming....... (Having issues with uploading pix......)

[The_Wreck]

Looking good. I will get these posted to our website in the next day or so.
