New development.

I talked with Merle Hawkins at coffee this morning and he is going to get me some info on an ignition system he uses on his bike. Installs easy and works good.
We went to the dog track and I got in some flights with the problem engine. It ran quite well with the bad hose fixed and moved to the tank side. As I re fuled it I noticed a tiny leak in the same hose. I removed it to test and it broke at the nipple again. I replaced it with another piece I had and it flew even better. The other hose might have been latex instead of silicone.
I hinged the elevator and flaps on the rebuilt plane and installed the wing into the fuse. I have to finish covering the wing before I can finish gluing it in place.
