Hardway, Ordered the Flightline RC 1600mm Spittie this morning as I tried flying the cockpit kit and plastic parts last night and kept she whose authority exceeds my rank awake making aircraft noises. Looking forward to this build and flying this airframe. Best, LB

The Spitty has become a winter project as I had a botched take off attempt. Minor damage, broken prop and some small dents. She dropped the left wing and no amount of corrective aileron would lift her. So, time to get the 3D cockpit and eliminate the blue box, also get a new gyro for her, this way I've eliminated everything but pilot error which I plan to work on for the rest of the season!!

I am printing right now at .08 layer height with a .25 nozzle and it takes awhile but worth it. This is right off printer no sanding or cleanup. Only had orange but will paint it.

G56, Ya gotta hate it when you pit your tip. Though seriously, how big are your tips, i.e., are we speaking in terms of latitude, longitude, fore, aft, port, starboard, LE, TE, depth? I need answers here, just how big would you like your tip to be? :Thinking: Best Always, LB
