I'm surprised its not dual RX, you wouldn't want to be taking chances with a model like that ;)

Alan, Dave has spent too much on the model that his good lady Donna won't let him spend another £9.50 on another Rx!!

No Colin, he is just taller than you........

Fuselage looking more realistic now Pete.:) What is the turbine to drive this thing?

I notice that Dave has allowed you to splash out on a new 6 channel receiver. Well done Dave!:lol: No expense spared

Jet munts 140 Phil, power to weight ratio means she will be very quick at full power. Think I will turn the rpm down a little until I have confidence in the airframe. On the Elevators I have upgraded the pivot tube to 8mm solid carbon rod and they will be driven by 2x savox 25kg servos. With the all moving tailplane any sign of flutter will be disastrous.

Just ask Jay about that!

Have you managed to add rudders in the end?
