Hi, all

Because some customers wonder where to measure the CG from,

I here attach the photo to clarify the position to start measure CG 260mm - 300mm point.

Best regards

Anton

Hi everybody! I have a question for you all. Does anybody have pictures of the lights on the A-4 and did it have afterburner? Im about to make an order for some lights for my C-arf lightning and thought that i would order lights for the scooter at the same time.

Regards Jocke J

No - A-4's did not have afterburner.

rotating beacon on the top fuse, one on the aft side of the LH gear pod, standard navs, wingtip strobes, landing light on the rh main gear door.

Recieved my Skymaster A4! I ordered this custom paint scheme via BVM. No damage and packed extremely well. The paint job is excellent, Skymaster also did a great job with some subtle weathering.
Panel line and rivet detail is excellent as always.
Worth the wait!
I will post more pictures down the road, but here is a picture of it just un packed in my garage.
Thanks Anton.

Looks good!

Would you be able to take a picture of the main gear door fixing and actuation points if you have time? The one I have coming didn't have the gear doors pre installed.

I look forward to seeing your build.

Cheers, Alex
