Can't wait to see that plane in the air. I snuck on the manufacturer's website and checked it out. Found a great video - landing speed is at a walk.

No, Sandy, I was not there Sunday. I went Saturday when all the wussies who thought they were so sweet, they would melt in the rain didn't show up. Hmmm... where were you? Shocked

Dan, to get back on track..

This is what we need to see. This is supposedly an R/C model. Can't wait - that is going be sooooo nice!!!

I'm installing a Zenoah 80cc twin (electronic ignition).
I will be using some G10 material to make brackets to hang the spray tubes on. Now have the jet nozzles and T fittings.
As for the smoke, don't know if I will inject fluid into both cylinders.... lots of fluid....

Will be using a 32 oz. tank for gas and a 32oz tank for water.
This thing's a heavy lifter so it shouldn't have any negative impact.
The challenge begins........
