Airplane therapy was yesterday. Spent close to 8 hrs working on my FW 190.

I got the EME 70 mounted, throttle servo in, cowl mounted, fuel system done, radio gear install (sans elevator extensions) and fit the wing.

Using the XG11 and power safe 11ch Rx. Going to use a soft switch, instead of the bind plug. Just waiting for my 22x12 prop to show up. Gotta finish mounting the ignition, mount mufflers, cut the cowl for exhaust, run elevator extensions and then CG it. Then I will be off to maiden it.

Got everything sanded and now it is on to covering. Didn't take to long do not like sanding and I only sand to 220 at best. Sanding and me do not like one another get clogged up and end up sneezing all day.

The engine looks small on the front of the fuselage. Plane is looking good it won't be long before it ready t fly.

Engine fit is perfect, not small by any stretch. Engine fits the cowl, without cutting the cowl for plug caps. 60-80cc is usually what they call for. I got tired of searching for a GT80, with an EI conversion, so I opted for the EME 70. If I need more nose weight, I will buy the electric start conversion for it.

ITS DONE, DONE, DONE, DONE LETS SMELL SOME FUEL. GET SOME FUEL STAINS ON THE SIDE OF IT. WE ARE ALL WAITING IN THE EDGE OF OUR SEATS.
Fly it when you are ready and when the weather is perfect, it took a long time to build and a lot of work.
