Thank you. First three flights went great. Fourth not so good. Hovering, engine died, rest wasnt pretty. Yes I color matched helmet. Thanks for a great looking pilot. Looks good in there. He even survived crash. Started rebuild when I got home. Not to bad. Should have it ready in a week or two.

Good News!! The rebuild is complete and I was able to get 5 good flights in this weekend. Can't wait to go have more fun with it. It is nice to fly a plane 15lbs lighter with the same horsepower.
