Mounted landing gear and wing tip skid. Begining to cut monocoat for trim. Added my very old froom spinner to help get balance where it needs to be and weight is now at 9 Oz.

Here it is...

Gotta take time to get out to the flying field now...

Showing off the new counter top too... glad the wife didn't catch me...

Little round thing behind the engine is the pacifier house... should built it into the wing though.

Looks good, George. Nice spinner.
I can't tell, but did you put jam nuts on the back of those flimsy little R/C clevis's? They'll need it and your controls will feel better at the handle.

Stuntflyr,

Jam nuts are on the list of little things to do. also need to put the little c-clips on the clevis pins too. Those flimsy RC clevis's may look flimsy, but I have had many a flight (with another 1/2A plane) with no problems what so ever. Another item on the list is a pinch off mechanism to hold the pacifier until the engine is started.
