Looks like fun! What's the fuse in the background? Looks like a bipe, a Hawk maybe?

It's a 24" Guillows SE5a kit for free flight or R/C . They can be control line also . Most of my Cox models are free flight . I'll post pictures some time later of some of the free flight birds .

Re: My new bird
Can we have paint and detail notes? Great job on the yellow! It should be easy to keep up with at the end of the lines.

Re: My new bird
Thanks guys ! Here is the details on the plane . It's my own design , painted in Sig nitrate then a light coat of Sig yellow and then some thin Klass Kote epoxy to fuel proof . The landing gear is.020" tempered aluminum and the tank is a 1/3 oz. Perfect wedge with some mounting tabs soldered on . Nothing special , just built to be a trainer for new be's and a few shaky old men like me . I'm not real good at posting pictures or video but I'll try and get my wife to help post some free flight pictures later on .
