Planning to use a CF main landing gear, which will require a fair amount of fitting of a LG baseplate

Also, a seriously involved topsides consisting of a Cockpit and turtle deck

Sanjay ji a beautiful choice. Just dusted out my old cherokee - a biofom model which has a cox engine.

A lovely looking model, {:)} have seen the yellow version of this in my field.

Ashok-ji - looking at that is giving me a serious inferiority complex  :o

Lovely one. Is that balsa skin covering the foam wings?

Jana - I have a long long way to go still.

Also putting flaps

Sanjayji I am sure you will do a better job.

The wing is balsa frame (leading and trailing edges and balsa ribs) with biofoam sheeting. Actually, the biofoam was given one coat of araldite and left at that. So after years of gathering dust, took it out and will complete it before this flying season. Sanded part of the fuselage today. Will modify it to electric. I will stop here and not hijack your thread.

Fuselage paint needs time to dry in this weather, so on to the wing

Sir,
UC is CF or painted dural?
I find at least one new intriguing item in every new model from your hangar!

sanjayrai55

Iyer sir, it is CF.

I wanted to buy an Alloy LG from HK, but it was out of stock. This was about $ 2 or so more, so I took it.

Hope it does the job  :)
