OV-23 Thrush from EAM update
Remember this plane? Dave has been working for awhile now to get the kits
finished. There were lots of delays and some changes to the look of the plane. The kits are done but last part of the process is making the instructions. Dave has sent me a beta kit and I'm using the long holiday weekend to finish it off. I will be posting construction photo's up to the finished plane. It builds very easy so far and the laser cut parts are great. A real rainy day project. More to come. Steve PS If you go to my website or EAM you can see a flight video of the prototype. www.sneill.com or www.eam.net |

Here's some shots of the new re-designed fuselage pod. It's big enough inside for up to 12 cells.The fuse is made of ABS and the parts are laser cut. Didn't take long to put together. More tomorrow.

Don,
I'm not sure what the price will be. Maybe Dave will ring in about that. It would in a way make a good first EDF. It is a wing, but it flies very easy and predictable. ROG is another plus. You could put retracts on it too. Also it builds in a few days as you'll see by the progress here. The thing I liked the best about the prototype was the taxi back to the pits! Dan, Daren, Gregg, I'm getting tired of camo, any idea's for this one's paint job? Thanks Don, Steve |

Here's the one Dave is working on. I like it, it is camo. But it goes well with the
write up Dave did about the plane for advertising. I sure you'll see that soon. I think he's planning to B-2 type windows on it. Mine will have the canopy, you can build it either way. More to come. I have more construction photo's to post. Tomorrow it should be all framed up. Now what about that paint job again? Steve |
