BAM! Looks like now all I need to figure out is what size tygon to use, do I need any inline filters, and to pickup some 2s Lipos for the HV goodness.

Bowmans arrived too, also waiting on the wolverines from Mike at fromeco.

Well, if you buy a fourtitude tank, and some of their fuel line, you're set. I picked up a 16oz for mine :)

I got a tank kit from valleyviewrc. Think I'm gonna use it on a Fiji bottle.

Any advice on cutting the cowl? Need to do it on both the extra and the edge.. Never done it before

I forget where I saw it, but there was a cool technique of cutting a piece of card stock for the shape of the can and the muffler, and then using that as your outline for the cut.

Maybe Jim/Joe can weigh in since they've done it so many times?

Got a little work done tonight: Cut out control horn covering squares, glued in the Horizontal Stab, and mounted all the control surface servos. Not much... but progress none the less.

Awesome! I did a little too, just not on the extra. The edge is all done and ready for maiden! Well, I think I forgot to reconnect the fuel line to the engine, but I can do that before I fly ;)
