Hope to have it flying by Wednesday or Thursday of next week. :)

Thank you Alan Bonner for a HUGE amount of help, and Gary Travis and Chris Bergen for telephone tech help. :)

Very nice, Will. What motor are you running in it?

Prototype TRM G260PUH, that is a little different than Prototype #1 that has been flying for 4 months.

We will be swinging 810 V-Blades at ~1450. Really looking forward to flying it for the first time. It should auto great and does have the constant drive tail upgrade so it should be a blast!!

Will..is it just me or on this picture of the head does the bell mixing arm in the foreground have the balls on backwards...The longer arm should have the ball facing the head...maybe it is just the perspective of the photo but it looks like you have the ball facing in on the short arm on one side and the ball facing in on the long arm on the other side (backside in the photo)...

Looking good Will, what kind of pipe are you going to be running with the engine?

I think Greg is right. The ball on the short side should face out, and the ball on the long side should face in (at least this is what the manual calls for.)

Yes I think you guys are correct. The balls are just hand tight, the head is posing for a photo. You got me. Thank you though. ;) I just did not want the "no balls" look as well... you know...

Really looking forward to flying the EB!!
