    Thanks for all of your help guys. I figured it out today. It is the prop. I think it is too weak. Looks like when I get to just about full throttle, the prop is "bending" and causing the noise. I put an old orange 8x4.3 on there and it works great. They are the GWS slow fly props. Should...

    Quick question @Rolling.Circle I have the recommended motor from TH. I am using a Castle Talon 15 speed controller. When I go full throttle, I get the screeching noise. Do you know what causes that?

    All that is left is the motor and equipment install. I use these little foam pads to install my RX and speed controller. I use these on my larger models also. I covered up the wires with a small piece off of my donor plane just to make things look a little nicer.

    Motor mount and pilot are next. After I glue on the motor mount with welders, I put a small amount on the back side in each corner for extra strength. I added a piece of cloth to the pilot to add to the cool factor.

    The tail was next. Add a cf piece and the control horn, then attach to the fuse. Control rod was the same as the elevator.

    Upper vertical fuse and top wing were next. I had some trouble getting the fuse installed while pulling the wire for the serv o through. Takes a little patience and time. Top wing was easy. Add the cabanes and flip it over to install the wing.

    Landing gear is pretty straight forward. The instructions show how to thread the cf rods. I accidentally used 1 incorrect rod. There are 6 rods that are the same length. 4 are a diameter, and 2 are a different diameter. I used one of the thinner ones on my gear. After everything was...

    Elevator control rod. Very simple. Put the little white guides in the holes and thread the rod through. The rear clasp gets a white plastic tube. I had to open up the hole in my clasp a little so the tube fit inside of it.

    Next I set up the control rods for the ailerons. This system is pretty neat. Basically a CF rod in between 2 clasps. Set everything at neutral and glue the rod into the clasps. Added the bottom vertical fuse and some bracing.
