| Looks like you have gotten a handle on the motor. Looking forward to see your installation of all RC components. Maybe someday I will give it a go! |

| Tony, what's the weight of the cowl? It looks lovely, but will it be light enough to fly? |

| Not sure of the weight James but its aluminium and it is quite light. The build that inspired me was this link http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_7861264/anchors_7861264/mpage_1/key_/anchor/tm.htm#7861264 he used a stainless steel coffee pot for his. the cowl was purchased from http://www.dbsportandscale.com/ for a pup of the same scale. |
