RE: 2948 Hellcat!
It is a scratch build all the way. The cowl was foam... Now, the cowl is a coke bottle heat shrunk around a wood plug. Only the top half of the cowl is plastic. The bottom half is solid foam.

RE: 2948 Hellcat!
yeah, one of the first things I did was yank about .5oz of the nose. I was real worried about ending up tail heavy. I think I could still go more. hopefully I get some time this weekend to try it out! Bill's traveling a bunch this month for work... so I may not see much of him for awhile. but we've been talkin abunch about it. I've also got a p-51b drawn up... he might endup with one of those! we'll see. edit: for grammer

RE: 2948 Hellcat!
She flew awesome! Straight as an arrow on launch, rolled ALOT faster than I expected, set a little hot on elevater, flew on rails, and floated in nicely for landing. I really think I have a winner here! Although I will admit this is my first scale bird so I have no real frame of refrance. and I flew with a 9x4 instead of a 10x4(read thats what I have in the box for open b). In regards to posting on RCCA site. I havent got an account set up there yet. And I didnt take to many pictures while building. However, I think we might build one for Bill, so I'll make sure and take some pictures of that one! oh in case you haven't figured it out Dane, this is Paul F.

RE: 2948 Hellcat!
here she is after her maiden flight. a question for you scale guys, Is she marked up enough to pass the markings requirment per the rules? In other words would you allow me to fly it at a contest as is?

RE: 2948 Hellcat!
thanks guys. yeah Dane I plan to bring it. I think I've got Bill interested too! I'm working on some cad files to make cutting out the fuse easier. this one was hand cut. with a hot wire bow and templates. I think this guy will turn with the best of them. these navy birds are all pretty short.
