New project

[GliderGuy]

I'm happy but also little bummed, the plane flew flawless, but the video didn't turn out. It started then looked like it stuck in frame. So I'm bringing my hat cam next week.

Awesome….congrats! Looking forward to the video to come

I'm planning to get some video next weekend. If all goes well

I am tempted to do the scheme you posted early on, it would be great to make it a warbird

[SanExup]

That scheme is a classic though. Seeing it together it looks pretty sweet!

It's kind of ironic that you picked up this one at the same time as HKs release of the King Air. The design of the Cessna is WAY more attractive than the King Air in my opinion.

Oh yeah, plus being top flite, they always had great flying planes. I knew this wouldn't be an exception. Plus it's huge!

RM, WOW, just caught up with this thread. A great model and she's in perfect condition. Looking forward to watching your progress. Best, LB

Got her in the air, and went to turn on the camera no juice, but I got the retracts working perfectly.

Gorgeous plane.. it's nice to see something different / old kit restored in a good way.

Hopefully it flys as good as it looks.

[rifleman_btx]

Indeed it does!
