| Not to difficult jeff as there's not many planes that require a break step for water takeoffs I had it narrowed down pretty quickly, Besides having the plans already did help Its on my build list for next year, but I'll wait and see how yours handles first. | |

| well apart from my little mistake its going together really well.
wing is going to have to be to half's as the depron is to short.
got most things except the servos and they will slow me down alot.
will have to get them after Xmas and do as much as i can. | |

| I just hope you have the confidence in your build skills now to maiden the plane YOURSELF!, much more pleasure will be gained from flying it.
Looks a nice build so far jeff keep us updated with pics. | |

| well little update. servos came from cod and as always it was next day delivery so can really get moving along. the rudder/nacelle is a bit of a nightmare figuring out, but im getting there.   | |

was thinking the same as the polaris Keith. think this plane will be lighter than the polaris,so will be bit more agile i think. | |
