I LOVE this plane. I'm looking forward to seeing it all come together. Are you going to be flying it? Looks great.

I always look forward to your building fotos. I'm especially lookng forward to the Dauntless, it's on my shortlist. |

No to the flying for this one, it will be a display version complete with full working retractable landing gear that I just about am done with.
Photos to follow soon of the retracts!
Too bad we cannot post video here, I would make ashot clip of an action shot. |

I still have not decided to put in the working flaps yet,have to mull it over a bit more yet.
Practice has been making things easier, so might do this one as long as the skeeters leave me alone long enough.
So bad right now out on the shop, I am doused in Deep Woods Off squeeter spray, but they still go for the eyes. |

Looks good Xanadu, The extra stringers really add to the shape. Any idea how much extra weight they would add?

Nope, I never weight them as I am not concerned for flying weights ratios. This one is just for static display. |
