I am soo excited to see you have a gasser once again. And truth is? Not a bad looking one at that. Now get that radio put in and go huck the crap outta it.

The scheme is a bit "loud" but with the right graphics I think I can make it "POP".
Reversing the colors on the new landing gear helped a lot. The "Sbach" wheel pants and paint scheme need to go . Extra 300 style wheel pants painted black with the top half white and a red burst stripe overlaying white down the sides in the middle that matches the scheme would pop it too.

Something along the "lines" holds my interest here. I wonder if some stickers would help my appearance as well? . Giant Scale News sticker down the side where "one team one mission" is and my birth year as the race number. Radio logo and Pilot- RC bottom of wings.

Hey David,
Thanks.
Personally it was not my first choice of a scheme but it was the only one left at Chief when I purchased the plane. It has grown on me though and those damn wheel pants are too! Go Figure.

I like the scheme and the wheel pants.

I like the scheme and the wheel pants.

Me too. It's kind of different and out of the ordinary. But then, look at who owns it. Definitely not a normal kind of guy. Bwaa haa haa haa!

Just over 69 hours of work this week and I am in serious need of a break. I did manage to make progress on the big 212 Yak engine swap though. Just a few photos for now. Will get back later today with some info. The weather looks very promising today, so I'm going to attempt a Pitts maiden. For now, Behemoth Yak photos. I did have to do a very slight modification to get the canisters down the can tunnel. But they are there and should be just fine.

Prop is drilled and gas pedal programmed. Maybe I can get a test run this afternoon.

Hooked my throttle servo up on the Edge last night. Just need to slap the mufflers on and hook the ignition up and then we can go for a test fire
