Nothing like a great set of decals to make that final 'touch' of an airplane. Steve, your airplane is now ready for 'a$$ kicking" at contests!! Hopefully the type where you are winning!! lol

I think(hope) it will help with the snaps.

Nick, You know you should really just sell me that airframe and get the 40%er! I'm sure BH wants to see you flying his NEW 40% version for the 2010 IMAC season. Bill sponsor the guy "FULL RIDE" so he can dump that little bird on my lap. You wont have to worry about weighted prop washer or adjusting CG not to mention you did a quick build I'm sure its killing you to not have Dremeled the **** out of it and squezzed every last ounce of balsa dust out of her.. I truly am looking out for you sanity.. Tell you what I will throw in a CASE of your favorite adult beverage just for your trouble. OR I will assemble your 40% free of charge and deliver it to you at the next IMAC? So ITs a DEAL.......

Bill

Yes I have a couple of comments.

First, I love the hinging.
Second, I think you have designed a plane that actually looks like the real thing.
Third, I think it is very light for its size.
Four, The carbon wing a stab tube is a nice touch. Carbon gear would be very nice.
Five, the cowl attachment is clean.

I think you are going to have a real winner with this plane. I am happy I took your last one.

So when are we NON-Arizonans gonna get our hands on some of these?

I've got the money, I've got the time, watching all these glowing reports is driving out of my mind! I fly no matter what the weather, so if I get one, I'll be flying it within the week.

Mr. Hempel,

Anymore on delivery times yet?

Joe

There are still more planes avialable......... My next container is almost complete. I am waiting for additional Yaks to be completed so my best guess is it will ship around the first part of December and I should have the container by the end of the year! I really want to make sure I have the container by then!!

JCMIKE: I'll look through my email agian, once in a while some people get sucked into the spam folder. If you dont hear back from me within 24hrs, send me another email. TY

Rolling Thunder: C/F Gear are being made for these planes as we speak..... But will not be avialable in time for the container. Look for these during the first part of the year.... Jan/Feb.

I didn't hear back from you either, sent another message, wanted to increase my request to be both a 50cc and 100cc. Let me know if I need to do anything else.
