I'm just about finished my Skymaster F-16, just some decal work and a tie strap here and there.

Weight came in at 17.12 lbs dry, so it will be pretty close to 1 to 1 with the Wren SS.

Very nicely done Angus. Nice craftsmanship.

The SS looks great in there.

RU running any kind of powerbox on your 6014?

I've started assembling the Scorpion but just done the servo installation so not much to show. Got a box full of stuff from Dreamworks waiting at the border which should get me to the next step. I'll put some pictures up one I get something done.

OH ANGUS, very neat installation. Good job man.

Angus · 01-18-2009, 03:13 PM

Hi Paul, no powerbox, the 6014 is pretty robust and I don't think there is any need, at least at this size. If I could impove on anything and I still might, is put a redundant receiver battery and switch.

The Scorpion is a very nice jet, I have just finished filling all the seams on mine and will be doing a paint job on it soon, just not sure what scheme yet.

Thanks Peter!, It is a very tight fit in the engine area, I could have spread things out a bit in the front but still might put a cockpit in it.

Im beggining to notice a patern. The inside of your jets look as clean as perfect as the outside. Two Thumbs up Angus!

Your jet is awsome and the install is unreal, very nice. I am learning from you.

Thanks Dennis, but my learnings and inspiration come from a good friend of mine and a friend of yours....John Wiebe

P.S. hope to meet up with you in Altona in the summer

Starting to look like Altona is going to be a busier place this year!!! Good News! As always Angus your installation is superb! I remember the days when mine were as nice! Now I spend too much time down here to have the time to do nice work! Loading the van for MCBH tomorrow...
