I took my Saito FG-40 off my Fokker D8 I have not been flying. Should sound great! So far I've mounted the servos, glued the control surfaces on, mounted the engine, painted the wheel wells zinc chromate yellow, and started to figure out where the throttle servo will go. I'm really loving this size of warbird. Not too big, not too small. I also have the P-47 and it flies amazing.

Second time one of these fuel bags has sprung a leak on me in flight. Going back to the stock tank on the Atom with UAT. Will add a smoke tank

TopRC Spitfire dialed in now. DLE 55RA. Needed 4.5lbs of lead in the nose to balance. It's a 35cc airframe

Saito 90 is gone on the Corsair. Going with an EME 70 or Ephil 76. Firewall is already marked for them!

First flight went well. Second one, something broke in the engine. It ceased up. Almost made the runway. All done with Saito radials
