The box was brought home opened to check that everything was there and ok but put back like it was.

Was fixing my garage doors and doing some ciment on the stair this weekend; everything looks great now but in the process broke the garage opener...so trying to fix that...

Well I`m starting the Extra here are proof pictures, the box is finally opened!

When I first looked at everything all the covering was very tight but now I can see some loosening. So first step retightning everything. You can see all servos are metal gear, and the tiny HS65mg is for the throttle .

No no.. Actually the plane is almost finish. Engine set-up is done, I had to cut the engine box top off cause the carb sits right there. I put the decals, unfortunately they don't give the big Aeroworks to put on the wings I'll have to find something else..


kevin
P.S. I'll try to post some pictures tonite.

I got my Click2.0 will do that next long weekend plus put back the ZDZ in the cap for winter flying.

The prop I was getting for you is back-ordered. I had the cut it from my order. I kept it on order for you so when one does come in it's there.

Well here are some pictures, as you can see I had to cut the engine box because of the carb. You can also see the use of the HS-65mg micro servo for the throttle.

I'm not taking any chances so I am using my pilot that was in the Christen Eagle he has experience flying...and crashing but he servived;)

Kevin Rochon

Well like me he doesn't need glasses for flying, for now.

Yes Dwight that's my ZDZ, it will go back in the Cap for the rest of the winter with the skis.

Kevin
P.S. By the way the Arf didn't come with the Aeroworks decal for the wing anybody has some cool decal I could put there about 3 or 4 inch tall by 20 to 30 inchs.
