Very nice job on the wings. I'm building one of these myself and looking forward to flying it next year.

Hi Kevin,

Wing looks strong. Should be a nice stiff wing

Bagged the wing. Had to run a low vacuum because of the lightening holes in the foam. Very happy with the results. Weight 27 ounces. With any luck it will be ready for Joe Nall this year.

Hi Brad, a little progress. I lightened up the cores, routed and added spars, mixed up a batch of E-Z poxy, and added some carbon fiber.

Brad,

I know Carl is monitoring this thread and he'll definitely appreciate any/all assistance / knowledge you can offer up.

Tom at BME has taken care of the initial carb/reed block problem that plagued Keith when the BME 116 first came out and they're supposed to run like champs now.....I'll see, as I have one all setup in my 'modified' Sopwith Pup

Morning Bill

Thank You

I think a BME 116 would be awesome on there. Really light
And the BME runs pretty smooth and makes good power. I had a BME 116 about a year before I built this plane . Sold it Trevor. It went in his Challenger which was then sold as a combo.
I tried to buy the motor back. But the new owner wouldn't sell it LOL
Or I would have put it in my Slick.

If he has any questions, tell him to contact me

Hey Brad,

What a great looking aircraft....

Fellow club member/buddy of mine Carl (bipenut) has bought a Ver 4 and brought the plans to our club meeting last night. Needless to say we all had to wipe the drool off our mouths in order to not stain the 'very' large plans.

Question for you....I'm not a big fan of RI carbs and would likely choose a BME116 for power....your thoughts?

I couldn't get over the slowness and how light it felt. Everything I tried felt effortless! Very cool setup!

Here is a video from today at the Great Canadian Huckfest.

This is Guillaum Saucier flying my Slick. Better than I can fly it

A little update on the Slick.
is flying great. This is a video from Sunday.
I was trying a Falcon 28x9.5. I worked well. I have been using the Falcon 28x9wide.
I just ordered a 28 X 9 Falcon regular blade to try. See how that goes.
but the plane is a lot of fun. I'm liking it
