Finally, mine is on it's way!!
Can't wait to get this one built!
The weather is finally smartening up, so the garage is going to be paint land for this one, fresh air is a must.
Measured the box of the pick up and it looks like I'll have to yank wings to get her to the field, so I'll have to design a stand as well. But still, the wait is over. She'll get a coat of Krylon foam primer, then aluminum grey with pearl mixed into her, then a couple of coats of pearl, decals and then a couple of clear coats. Should look like a million bucks and fly as well too!!

Hmmm, who could that be??
All kidding aside, don't care what you bring, it'll just be so great to be together again!
My list of planes changes from day to day, definitely the Tigercat and the Bearcat though.
There is going to be a flight line to beat all flight lines this year!!

I ordered a second F7 because the first one had issue, although minor, I was not satisfied with it in terms of the build and the foam defects. I cannot now because of hand surgery. I hope the get the Cat out in the next 2-weekw or so. No use trying now and loose a plane from hand weakness. I have been reading the threads looking for new ideas for the next one. Many thanks for all the posts on this one.Comment

Good luck with the new one, and sending prayers for quick healing of your handsComment

Yelp they are back in stock and my second one will arrive on Wednesday. Learned from the build of the first one, which I have not flown yet. The build on the second is usually better. I saw one fly at the field the other day and it was thrilling to see this big bird fly.Comment

Looks awesome Brandon!

Dwc373, For CG as long as it's around the forward wing bolt screw, right side up, wheels down is what I use. It's pretty forgiving on CG with that wide wing chord.Comment
