I hope I have gotten over being such an overly perfectionist person and can get on with the building.

It's good you recognized it early on. I went to a lot of trouble to make everything perfect, but my plane still required fixed trim tabs on the ailerons and rudder to make it fly straight (probably due mostly to propwash). Most folks who've seen my plane will testify that my standards got pretty low toward the end, but I realized I could either build forever or go flying, and I chose to start flying it. I'm not talking about making crappy glue joints and that sort of thing, but I spent a lot of time trying to think of everything, and now that it's finished and I can see how it all works together, I find I was operating with too little information. The next one will be better, and will be built much faster... Mark Langford, 388 hours see KR2S project N56ML at http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford email to N56ML "at" hiwaay.net
