I had to redo the spinner back plate. This time printed a bit thicker, and the screw tie down also thicker, with cowling on

Haven't got it in my hands yet. but looking around it seems to have been produced in the 80s. they used Hanno Prettners plans.
It calls for a .91 engine, seems a bit small to me. it has an 84" span. Thinking an RCGF 21cc or 30cc twin. What is your thought on that?

Well , 84 inches is not very big so doesn't need a ton of power but I personally like gas engines rather then glow but that's a personal opinion.

I recently fabricated this current meter (amps) since we are running so much more current then we use to and it helps me to keep a tab on what is what.

Sorry I have not been present lately. Had some computer issues. But thankfully they are now ironed out. Back to intently watch your progress.

No worries , as you can see, nothing much to show, although I have been working on it, preparing for first flight , in the mean time getting my laser ready for some practice flights and testing the new FrSky 900 Mhz module and receivers, , these are for extreme long distance and better radio connection, but not long distance for me , only LOS (line of sight)
