I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

I still managed to get in a flight that lasted around 10 seconds. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Flying 12-Apr-08 03:37 Views : 1793 The Bird Dog flew like a drunk hummingbird due to the wind. I'll have to try again on a calm day. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Parked 26-Mar-08 16:47 Views : 1947 Lines for the movable surfaces have been added. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Parked 26-Mar-08 02:45 Views : 1816 Ready to Fly! SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Parked 26-Mar-08 02:45 Views : 1907 AUW is 21.3 grams, motor is 1/8" single loop 9" long FAI tan SS, and sporting the Guillow's prop and thrust button (wanted to give them a try). The "USAF" decal is a cut up "U.S.ARMY" decal. In hindsight I think I would have prefered the Army version. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Build 25-Mar-08 12:41 Views : 1964 Covered with tissue and am working on the canopy pieces. Forgot to use black tissue so I have to paint the nose, but it should be fine. Esitmated AUW is 20 grams plus the weight of crystal clear and decals. Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Build 21-Mar-08 16:39 Views : 1732 DD's master carvings get a coat of the good stuff. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Build 21-Mar-08 02:26 Views : 1944 Weight as shown is 6.6 grams. But now I have to wait for tissue from Easy Built. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Build 20-Mar-08 22:03 Views : 1673 The three of the 11" long kit stringers weigh as much as six of the 18" long stringers that I cut myself. Rather than cut into a fresh balsa sheet, these are cut from the edges of the Dumas sheet wood that was in my Corsair kit. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Build 20-Mar-08 16:48 Views : 1488 The new part is nearly half the weight of the heavy kit part, but is still 50% heavier than the lighter kit part. Goes to show that even Guillow's can have quility wood from time to time. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Build 20-Mar-08 16:22 Views : 1700 The piece in the back weighs 0.4 grams, the one in the front weighs 1.1 grams. And that was after I sanded the sheet for several minutes! I don't have any 1/20" sheet stock but I have some 1/32" that is just about the same thickness. SteveM Guillows Series 900 - Cessna Bird Dog Build 20-Mar-08 16:16 Views : 1583 All of the sheet wood weighs 3.8 grams. Two sheets were light, one was VERY heavy.
