Things are coming together.

I've got the major parts for the Wildcat cut out and mostly glued together. The wing is up to leading edge sheeting and the fuselage is ready for skinning. The tail pieces are made and hinged. I may have to use a 3 inch bellcrank instead of a 4 inch as the hobby shop is out of 4 inchers.
 At the park this morning the winds were about perfect except for being variable in direction but not too much. I got the handle and lines on the Hound Dog set and the Nomad+ is flying very well. I removed the restriction from the muffler to up the power a bit. I snagged the release line on the first landing with the Nomad and that pulled the tail wheel off. I used two elastics to put it back on and fixed it good when I got home.
