A redo on my old Flat wing/fuselage PT-17 into a Full Fuselage Aerodynamic airplane... From a pile of Foamboard a miracle appears. Stay tuned in as the build progresses into a Flying Machine... Mudman1959

Great looking plane

That turned out really good!

Tail servos and Lower wing is installed

My Original "Flat" Stearman... It was slow, over weight and not a very good flyer. Working on the Top Wing for the New Stearman and I cannot wait to see how it flies... Mudman1959

Top wing is going on... Wing struts came out good. Using 1/2 x 1/2 inch metal L brackets to attach them to the wings and fuselage. Still need to set the center wing struts... More to come. Mudman1959

Is that painted or colored tape? My old eyes cant tell. Those colors are super bright and really pop. Maybe enough to be a hanger queen show piece.

Colored Duct Tape... It's a 30 footer... The further you get back from it the better it looks...

Top Wing is Fully mounted now. Still need to connect the ailerons to the servos and then balance the plane. Getting closer... Mudman1959

Only thing about duct tape is it is HEAVY, lite always flies better.
