Well I finally finished the Great Planes Super Skybolt that I started in
August of 1994.  I put ailerons on both the upper and lower wings and I am 
using a YS 120 4C for power.  It is covered in metallic red, metallic blue, 
and white.  The basic pattern resembles the stars and stripes.  I was 
concerned that it would be nose heavy because of the engine, but it balanced 
out right behind the landing gear, right were it was suppose to.  I had to 
put 
about 6 ounces of lead in the wing because I side mounted the engine.  Sunday 
I took the fuselage out to the field  to run a few tanks of gas.  I am using 
Predator fuel for 4 cycles that has 16% nitro.  At first I had problems
running the engine, but a fellow club member pointed out that I had the 
pressure and fuel lines reversed on the engine.  And I only read the 
instructions four times.  Got the engine dialed in using a 15x8 propellor.  I
used 3.25" Robart wheels for added clearence for the propellor and left off 
the wheel pants.  Given favorable wheather conditions I will gove the Skybolt
its maiden flight on Saturday.
Happy Landings
Mike
... Happiness is landing without losing a propellor!
