I finished up the Champ today, now it is all ready for a test flight. It ended up weighing 2 lb 14 oz and the motor is putting out 440 watts, so the performance should be pretty good! It will look even better when the pilots get here.
I also got the F-4 nose gear doors all working, I used some small helicopter linkage to close the small front door. When I refinish it this winter, I am going to make those doors fit a little better! Vera's bible study group had a birthday lunch for one of the ladies today, she had made a peach jello dish for it. I was hoping there would be some left for my lunch and there was! It was good, I had two helpings. I spent the last part of the day cleaning the shop up a little, well maybe a lot! It was getting to the point where I looking for tools or materials longer than I was building.
Vera took a picture of our last dahlia of the summer.
