Nothing like a deadline to kick it into gear, huh? Oh, and you better cover up the big pitts, the owner is going to thing he is getting the 30cc version.

Haven't been able to post much while Kevin was away with the USA Pattern Team in Switzerland. Trying to keep up with our normal day to day operations and work on the MX at night after hours

Well we are pretty much ready for covering and paint. Here are a few snap shoots of it framed up on the table. I am installing the wing adjusters for optional changes in incidence if desired.

We have made it with a removable rudder so it can be transported easier. Due to my lack of time and we need to expedite the covering and final assembly we are sending it out to be professionally covered.

Jason Shulman will be flying this one in the Tucson Shootout this Oct.

We are going to power it with the DA 200 with our JTEC QC 120 canisters
Radio system : Futaba possible with the new 18sz if project delivery is on time
Fromco and Power Box switches
Tru turn spinner
Thunder Power batteries
Covering and paint: Tuny Pro in Fl.

The MX2 should be arriving at Tuny's today to start on the covering. Once the covering gets underway Jason will start installing the equipment.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT FINISHED!!! LOL

Building another crate today and shipping another MX2 out to AJ for the shootout.

Well just thought I would post one of the final pictures of the MX2. It flys great unfortunately WE did not get it done in time for Jason to get really comfortable with it before the shootout. We basically took delivery of the plane loaded it in the trailer and Kevin and Jason left for Tucson. Jason was working on trimming just before the start of the contest. I have to give a big THANKS to Jason and Kevin for all they did to get the plane ready to at least show off. Also Jerry Hailey for all his help. If nothing else it was a big hit at the shootout.
