All the electronics checked out and working |

About ready for covering. |

It is starting to look like a Hellcat |

Prop is a GWS 8 inch cut down to 6,5 inches. |

The motor is rated at 5 ounces thrust. I'm not satisfied with the canopy, a new one is in work. |

all the parts weigh 4.3/4 ounces at this point. The target is 6 ounces. |
| ftomstark, Comment for image # 21699 | 18 Mar 11 16:35 | | Steve, that's exactly what it is. I'm not sure how long it will last but there are two ailerons and the rudder so a single failure shouldn't be a problem.

While Comet models have a reputation for being lightly built this one is very robust, it has 3/32 stringers and a strong wing spar. at this point it weighs 44 grams. |

framing complete. Right wing done including aileron mechanism and rib cap striping. |
| SteveM, Comment for image # 21541 | 09 Mar 11 14:05 | | I've got this same kit stashed away so it'll be good to see you build it without harming the contents of the kit. Especially interesting to see the R/C conversion. |

This will be an RC model. That makes it several times longer to build due to removable wing hatches and equipment installation. |

I borrowed this kit. I copeid the plans and printwood so that the kit remains intact. |
