The kit finally arrived last night after visiting Quebec twice and then doing a tour of every state on the east coast (thanks very much, UPS  Angry). Extremely well packed and arrived with no damage.

So far, the kit looks good. Been going through the manual and the parts identifying everything and checking the fit of parts. Only big issue I've noted is that the wing tubes are way too tight - need some work here. I know this comes as a big shock to the guys that have built an ESM kit before. Wink Wink

I should have the retracts and TwinSync tomorrow with some engines and servos arriving next week. Still need to order two props, two prop nuts, two pilots, receiver .......

Geez, it's easy to spend money in this hobby. Grin Grin Grin

Wing tubes too tight!!!!!!! No way Steve.....can't be, not with ESM. Well, chuck it in a lathe and use some 80 grit paper - that'll fix it, and your lungs too....

Hey that's a design feature. It's there to prevent the wings from falling off when you forget to put the wing bolts in, right Al ?

Well, I'd like to say I'm slaving away building my new plane but, since my motors and servos won't arrive until late this week, I decided to take a break and head to Las Vegas - sitting in Caesar's Palace right now thinking about heading to Planet Hollywood and the Pleasure Pit for a brew.

Actually, it's only because of my extreme degree of dedication to the NS traveling public that I even agree to come to this convention and try to learn new ways to increase the safety on our roads for our citizens. Wink Wink

I HAVE been working on the plane - retracts are in and working, all hinging is done and I have glued a couple of louvers to the wings. Pictures when I get back.

Actually that expression is no longer relevant to today's internetized and connected populous...it now reads "what happens in Vegas goes on Facebook".
