Well guys im at it again i was bored today so i decided to bring the wife to Ottawa for the day.Well you don't spend the day in Ottawa without going to Great hobbies.:oso i went in the store and saw this amazing and unique airplane and it just sat there looking at me with sadness saying take me home.So i did.The wife was not impressed but after smooth talking her and promissing that we will have a wonderful time in china in october this is going to cost me large$$$$$$$$$$ we decided that it was going to be my early birthday present.Happy birthday to me:D.So here is my new project for this month and also i have a brand new os 46 that i bought for my kadet 3 years ago that fits perfectly in this plane.I also got a pitts style mufler wich i think will look amazing on this plane.

Il semble qu'il va y avoir beaucoup de "tug" de planneur. Bonne assemblage Stéphane.

Very nice plane Steph, David has the same model, although his is electric! I was at the field with him when he flew it in windy conditions, flew very well. I think this plane will be well suited for nitro. The silver, red and black are very sharp! Nice purchase.

Minwax Fast Dry polyurethane or other varnishes, just make sure it's not water-based. Or epoxy that's been thinned with acetone or alcohol, you simply paint it on with a brush. Some firewalls do come fuel-proofed, you can usually tell from the texture of the coating. Silicone will be messy and not as durable, just remember to keep it light!
