    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    Direct to firewall would be ideal...and it could work in this case...but I am not sure I can get the engine in/out once I epoxy the firewall in if I do This (without removing the carb first)... And that seems like a pain in the a$$! I am going to mock things up first so I will try to see if I...

    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    Mine has tiny holes drilled...but they don't come close to matching the DA85 bolt pattern anyway...

    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    I need some advice from all the composite experts out there... The firewall fits nicely within the fuse, but there is no reference and a fair degree of freedom for placement, and I am not sure how to mock the firewall/engine/fuse up to determine where it belongs. The nose of the airplane where...

    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    I was cruisin' along and My Dad Passed away this past Wednesday. Just got back home but I don't fell much like building, and I have to travel for work this coming week so no idea when I'll get back into it...the DA 85 for it came this week while I was away so that was a nice box to come home to!

    New Great Planes 50-65cc Pitts M12

    I saw the ad and turned Dr Evil on to it. He pre-orders it from Tower Hobbies last week with a mid-January ship date. Yesterday he got an email the plane was no longer available, it has been removed from Tower's website, and it was never on Great Planes website that we saw...strange.

    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    I've always wanted to try one. It is definitely stretching my build knowledge but I am really liking it so far...and the end results should be awesome. Just imagine...no more covering wrinkles in the sun!

    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    Yep! It could definitely present some challenges depending on engine choice ( I wanted to put a DA70 in this bird but ended up going with a DA85 as it will actually fit better inside)...but the lines are so clean and the access is very open ( from underneath the airplane). Really like it...

    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    The cool idea is that Delro provides these little aluminum sleeves that you epoxy into place. These sleeved provide a solid metal surface for the bolts to tighten up against, and provide a very tidy countersink. Once epoxied in, you simply cut the excess tube off, then sand flush with the...

    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    I have been getting a lot done this holiday season but not posting much, so here is an update - more to come. The Delro kit has many very nice ideas and one of the ones I really like is the way in which hatches are attached. The hatch shown here is the main Engine bay hatch (this kit has no...

    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    e I agree Kevin...I am really impressed...and there is no adjusting the wing...but the tail incidence has no reference (and the firewall does not either) so these can be placed anywhere the builder wishes...
