RSM Mark 1 finished#0 source
I finished my RSM Mark 1. No flaps. Wing was jig built. Fuse is painted with Rustoleum with Monokote on the wings. Quick, easy and cheap. No 20 pointer but I'm very happy with it. Very nice kit, almost everything laser cut with holes for my Adjust-O Jig. I used a Sullivan metal horn, Dubro pinned hinges and ball joint with the carbon fiber rod. Very smooth. I don't know what it weighs but it floats along through the air like it's full of helium. Engine is an early Fox 36 Stunt with a SSW tongue muffler. GRW 4 oz. uniflow on pressure. It vibrates like a Fox but it doesn't care if it's going up, down, upright or inverted, it rattles to the last drop and lands so sweet it'd make ya cry. It pulls good in the overheads and just tractors along like it aint no thang. The engine is going to Lew Woolard next Monday before it breaks all the glue joints though. This plane is just plain fun. I thank Leonard for getting me the wierd Fox over/under mount tongue muffler and a big thanks to Eric Rule (RSM) for a great kit and a ton of free advise.I hope the picture comes out. This is my first upload.

I am a retread, - I did C/L in my youth and did not know what I was doing then other then having fun. And not much has changed.
