HI   I have just got my latest issue and i too love the moody front cover, i have just looked at the plans supplied with the issue and have found the same as Dave no wing section i have looked and can not see if this is to come out in the next issue or not ?   Can you shed any light on this ?   David

Hi Everyone   I have to say Jon, that is looking good, i have had an unfortunate set back on mine. Having had no time this winter its been part finished in the garage, and yes i should have known better its ruined.   I guess i will be starting all over again with the body, i love the cowel you used.   David

Peter   Do you have any planes or notes for building my own balancer.   David

Hi Tony   I do have some but if i am honest of late i have had not much chance due to work, i have just resolved my engine mount problem so i can move forward again here are some pics as it stands at the moment with the engine finaly mounted in its correct position wings are completed and covered but i am a tad unhappy with them so may hav to do it again. I am hopping to get some time this week to start completing the electrics on the engine and the cowling i am off to the garage to get them to bend my wire on tuesday for the undercarrige thankfully my partners brother owns a workshop so as per Peters idea im off there.   i have also been of late looking at my next project the bushwacker so looks like im going to be busy still trying to get into a local club.   More pics by the end of next week fingers crossed.

Hi all   Ok i know its been a while but with work and everything i have been on a go slow, first the good news i have the engine fitted and now most of the servos are in just to add the last one for the engine.   Now i have come across a couple of issues bending 8 gauge wire to form the undercarage thats turned into a disaster broke my old work bench seems it was not quite strong enough to take the brute force needed to bend and shape the wire haha.   Any sugestions please other than build a new workbench, also now that i fitted the engine i was looking at cowling and forming ideas in my head so i went to add the silencer to check measurments problem number two it does not fit.   It seems my orentation and deepth dont allow for the silencer to fit its too short, i have searched but can not seem to find and extension for the sc engine Peter please tell me you can buy them or anyone got an idea that might help me overcome this.   I am looking to get this completed as i have now bought the bushwacker plans as my next project and training Plane. If any one has any pictures that may help with this please feel free to send them or pass my a link i would love to see the constructions.   Thanks every one

I special selected it for the job, i did a roll on the spitfire by wetting the balsa and wraping it around a can to dry gave me the perfect fit.   i will try the solar film trick though as the roll on this is tighter thanks guys. My plan today is to work on the back section forming the blocks to fit on the rudder and tail to shape.   I will need to start thinking about forming the wheel struts soon too question though is there a special item for testing the centre of gravity or is it an item i can make.    

Well its saturday night and instead of being out i have be breathing life in to Harmony, the wings are all but complete now.   Body is coming on and i have started to cover the wings, however i must confess i did rebuild the whole body again i was not happy with the centre line.   Peter your right much easier to build it flat down with the help of a set square all went without a hitch.   On the point of the reciever i have one now although the crystals i bout for it are not the correct ones but Mr Model shop owner seems to be getting more chatty these days and has stated he will take back anything that not right wow!!!!! happy days.     all i need do now is finish the wing coverings add the rods and then its all down to the body.
