So what else would you call it?
There's only one thing I can think of besides my Raven project plane which combines yellow, black, red and dark blue.
I have therefore dubbed it "The Bruise." Thanks to a visit to the original owner the other day, I now know where everything is supposed to go. He even gave me some ply and square stock so that I could build a new servo tray for the rudder. As a result, I made a bit of progress today. I'd mounted the engine and prop a few days ago and removed an unnecessary support which the previous owner had used to hold up the exhaust pipe; a new/old 8 oz. DU-BRO fuel tank was strapped to the fuselage earlier tonight and the chewed-up foam wheels came off. Turns out that the wheels are mismatched. So are the screws serving as axles, for that matter. The right wheel was held on by two nuts and the left by a short piece of fuel tubing. Proper axles shall be procured! Even the hardware holding the gear in place on the fuselage is mismatched. Easy fix. Another easy fix involved the careful removal of the 1998 AMA sticker from the left wing and the racing number from the right. No hidden boogeymen under either sticker in the form of torn covering, but I'll need to apply a bit of Goo Gone to clean up the adhesive residue. On the other hand, I'm thinking of preserving the price markdowns just for fun. The Bruise shall be punching hematomas in the sky very soon. |
