3D CAP 232-ST design / build / prototype

[Terryscustom]

Needs a fuselage attached to it though......I'll get to work on that part. I am going to set the engine box up to handle the DA120, but I'll be running a nearly new DLE111 with bowman rings. Barely broken in but a very strong running engine.

I'm also having so much fun with the flaps on the Vipers I think I'm going to do split ailerons and cored surfaces and belly pan.

Very nice

As I was doing some research on the DLE engines, (just because I have a budget planned for the Viper, It will get a DA next year!) The 111, compared to the 120 in HP is about perfectly even given the weight saving of .5 lbs. on the 111. If you were to look at it from a thrust issue though, it is hands down the 120, and as I have talked with several people who have purchased the 120, I must say.... They are all impressed! I will be intrigued at how things work out for you on the CAP. Although knowing you... It will also be a light aircraft!

Yea, I'm going with the 111 because I have it on hand. I have a 120 available but have another project for Spring that I need that one for. And no, I'm not tellin ya

Good, otherwise I may have to start selling off body parts also! Your stuff is always so cool to see, and now to know we can all own some part of that...... I don't think my smile can get any bigger!

Terry, watching your builds make me want to put something together. Then I go, oh wait, I can't even finish a foamy.

Don't worry, it takes me an average of 6 months to a year to build a foamy too!!! I have three new in box right now, now that you mention it

DLE 120 is a perfect match for the Viper.

Oh yea, split flaps are the way to go.
