It's not a slick for a dragster.

Tonight I'll get the blind nuts installed and get them mounted

LMAO!!! Jim - we're playing the waiting game now!!!

I am taking my time finishing the hatch and wheel pants / cuffs are almost done.

* Waiting on 2 more Durant boxes for the ailerons
* Waiting on some NACA ducts for the cowl before it all goes for paint
* Waiting on 2 more SBUS servos for the wings before I set up the gear
* Waiting on some Fromeco switches to do up the wiring!!

In the meantime, to keep you from shutting down this thread (LOL!!), I'll post some pictures tonight of what I've been working on! As a hint, I loved Jack's choice of Metallic Teal so much, I got a roll of my own for my PA Addiction

Brutal about NACA-Boy... nice product, but terrible customer service!!! Reminds me a bit of a certain motor-dealer with the initials B.A.

I guess in the meantime, you'll have to give that DA200/43% and good workout

Here was my latest little project for the last 3 nights - This used to be a purple Precision Aerobatics Addiction, but after 2 solid seasons of use, the cheap covering was getting pretty battered, so I stripped it and recovered it in Metallic Teal / Aluminum / White.

When I was stripping it, I was able to save the decals as templates and cut new graphics out of White Monokote!!

Tonight I'll install the gear back in it and the green Addiction will also get LED lights that ScaleGuy and I picked up from Toledo for night flying

Just little projects I've been meaning to do for quite some time now

[bradleyban]

I remember that thing.


Crappy about the naca ducts! To bad someone in Canada doesn't make them..

[TBrum]

And, once the little PA Addictions are done tonight, I start on my 43% Carden Extra300 that I'm doing in a Red Ferrari Scheme!!!

The graphics are incredible (the detail needs to be seen up close!!) - Eric at BandEGraphics did a fabulous job.

I'm also going to lighten this plane up quite a bit - it's pretty much built stock.

I have "Powered by ZDZ180" coming from Eric, since, for now, the ZDZ180 will go in this plane (later, I'll put the Mintor220 back in it!).
