My replacement 104 is ready for maiden! Too bad I'm busy working on my daughter's plumbing.

Slow, steady progress now... Really hoping to finish this plane soon.



The duplex connectors/extensions are nice, only one plug when attaching the wings.

You can get them from [MENTION=51]3drcparts.com[/MENTION]

They are very nice. I have them in my two 120cc planes, Bigfoot and the Drastik. Something I did on accident the first time was to get 12" and 6" male and do the opposite females so that when you plug in the wings, you can't plug the 6" to the 6" as they won't reach so you can't plug the wings in backwards. The depends on your RX location though.

Got all the control surface servos installed and setup except the rudder.

Installed the main gear and cuffs, going to grind a flat spot for the wheel collar set screws tomorrow when nobody is sleeping.

these wheels are BIG.

I think they are 5". The 110 only came with 4.5s IIRC.

Those videos are incredible. What Sim has planes that can go that fast to practice on? Hmmm Need to find a used 104. Flew the 60" EF Extra for the first time today and I can tell instantly that it's ganna be a blast.

The end is in sight!

Got the motor installed and throttle servo done.



Just need to glue on my removable rudder:



Cut the muffler holes in the cowl


And install pull-pull wire, the fuel dot and vent line, and tidy up. Most everything else is finished.
