I put the plane together over the weekend. Tomorrow I should get the tailwheel bracket and 1" wheel to finish it up. I'll have pictures of the plane, including some assembly and modifications, very soon.

Hehe...reminds of the time last summer when I bought a U Can Do 46, a Tiger 2, 2 meter sailplane, (2) OS .46 AX's, a boatload of servos and field box with all the glow essentials. Of course the House Kommadant t'weren't too thrilled with all this stuff but hay, I've
been addicted for the last 4 years!!!

OH...I know how you feel... I am in withdrawl because we are saving for vacation in two weeks. Can't wait till I get back cause I got a list of things I need to buy. I hope to have a Monster Pitts in the air by late summer. Would be sooner, but got a son graduating from college in May. For some reason, he expects a gift.... hmmm maybe I can convince him the Pitts is for him...
