| Good start, but I'd try to get the steering servo down a lil bit lower. Be very careful with the cf dust...that is nasty stuff to breathe or get on your skin. |

| Make sure to have your wires and radio gear all insulated very well, carbon fiber conducts electricity very very well. Looks good.  |

| Looks like a good start. IMHO,the motor is way to high. Put it down on the belly pan |
