    On the nose gear door sequencer, while at my buddy Georges place yesterday he gave me a gear door sequencer (from a P-51 I believe he said) so I wired it up and it works fine. Now if I want to leave the door open when the gear is down I just have to plug it into the number 2 spot and if I want it to close when the gear is down I just move it to the number 1 spot. This works because the tail wheel doors on the P-51 stay open whereas the inner main gear doors close when the gear is down. I completely bypass the stock connector board of course.

      Sorry, that's called a dangling participle. On the other hand, I've never hit pavement quite that hard but the "days' not over yet", Brad

                            Another "me too" on the shipping notice. It showed up in my email a little while ago.:Cool:
                            On another note I really did get a shipping notice from Motion yesterday as well. It was for some other stuff though. ;)

                              Mine just showed up as well. Looks like I'm going to have to clear up some hangar space for this monster.

                                Just got an e-mail from UPS that my A-10 will be here tomorrow. That means overnight shipping vs the normal 2 day shipping I get. I love that I'm in Iowa and MRC is just one state over. :)

                                          Yahoooo! It's finally Hog Day for some of us! I just got my notice that it's on it's way. At least 3 of them will be at the UPS store on the border. Now we just have to draw straws to see who goes to pick them all up? :-)

                                          I have my graphics from Callie (awesome) and I can't wait to charge up my new packs and fly fly fly!!
