New to the Hangar

Well it is time to add a plane to the hangar. Have plenty of jets but a side from a Dynam 185 glider I haven't had a plane to fly lately. Hopefully this one will last longer than my Dynam T-28 Trojan.

Build took a little longer than it should have due to wiring and linkage problems. LED Connector from fuselage to vertical stabilizer came off while pulling slack back into fuselage. Would have been nice to have a bolt on tail section rather than having to glue it on. Second, linkage to flaps and ailerons was too long to adjust out using supplied plastic clevises. Was able to make new z-bends so everything worked out okay.

Hope to maiden it this week after bad weather passes through.Now if it will last longer than the T-28.
