Re: Am 35% Katana
Here are some pics of the build, started this week and is going well. Mounted the 3w-106 had to cut 2 3/8 off the motor box and used 3/4 stondoffs to give me 1/8 of a inch past the cowl. Elevators are next, getting the servos mounted and arms are always fun, no big deal though. Better to have them mounted inside.

Re: Am 35% Katana
Thanks Ken, Im actually more excited about getting this one done than I was my Yak. Its nice to go to the field and have something different than everyone else and fly just as good.

Re: Am 35% Katana
On my cowl the velocity stack will stick out around 1/4 of an inch on the bottom, will that affect the carb at all?
Thanks Brian |

Re: Am 35% Katana
Brian, you will be just fine. With the 90 deg stack it does not matter how the air hits the carb.

Re: Am 35% Katana
Brian.....I got my CF main gear from Mike at GraphtechRC this weekend and put it on today, alittle narrower at the stance and alittle higher too. I bought two and will paint one yellow, and keep this one black. http://www.graphtechrc.com/Secure/mall/maingear.asp
The first pic is with the stock gear and the second is with the new CF gear. The other pics are some better "under the hood shots". Ken

Re: Am 35% Katana
It's aluminum......just to clarify on the build. This plane was built by Vic Sebring for myself, so I will get his ass overhere and comment on this. He always does top notch assemblies.
