These flights are all done with hand winding as the winder broke and CA wouldn't hold it together. I managed to get some 15-20 second flights and then decided my poor wrist and finger were tired of winding and it was time for electric FF conversion.

I started sheeting the lower surface of the wing root and attaching the lower part of the fairing. Either that is a small cat or a large plane!
