    when do power distribution boards become necessary

    I can't believe that I'm really liking that, and the graphics will make it awesome!! Did you design it for the graphics or did the graphics come later? Can't wait to see in flight pic's! And would like to hear that motor!

    DLE 35ra,

    So I guess, it is what it is... Also wondered when I changed the ring, the top of the cylinder head almost had a flower pattern to it. Like perfect pedals all the way around. My DLE 30 did not have that.

    Old time Fav Slime Plane!

    Kaos 60s, how many I went though I can't remember. We had a member of the club who would take orders from us and build a bunch at a time, from scratch, with foam wings.

    Hi from Saskatchewan

    Just about 3/32 worth of washers under the top motor mounts. And I think I had a pin hole leak in the filler line which was sucking air to the carb. Plane flew straight and motor ran like no tomorrow! Liken it now!!
