Explorer 60 Repaired


Here is a picture of the fixed fuselage. Test flew it yesterday and it flys well. I braced the fuselage and also made a hatch for the fuel tank (which is really too low - the engine will go rich when inverted I suspect). The engine is a GMS 47 with an ASP carb and ASP muffler. Note the engine is mounted on metal plates. If you don't, over time, the wood mounts will crush (which they have already started to do).
