Default Nakajima B6N-2 Tenzan

Just completed a scratch Nakajima B6N (allied "Jill") Tenzan. The machine was built from modified control line plans....36" w/s, 2830-09 brushless, 32 amp ESC and 1500 lipo. Wings are polyspan and fuse etc are silkspan with minwax polycrylic to fill the weave and Tamiya acrylics for color (some weathering.... but too cold for nitrate/buty dope finishing). Four channel, I hit about 28 oz (kinda heavy) and expect 26 oz of thrust, so should fly okay. I'm relatively new to electrics after 30+ in glow stuff, so power/prop combos are a bit of an experiment!! Maiden flight's gonna be delayed as we just got hit with snow today in Nova Scotia

Very nice!
