Looks like you fixed the engines too, so they don't rotate with the
prop (How'd you do it?).  Very well done.  Now if you really want a
challenge, make the landing gear retractable ;-)

Thank you very much.  The model is fairly front heavy (engines and all), so
it balances very easily on the tricycle landing-gear.  I did have to shift
the side gear to towards the rear of the plane in order to balance properly.

As for the engines, I think I'll post a dat file or diagram, too hard to
explain in a post.


The photography is quite good, too - very clear and sharp, with good
lighting.

Thanks so much.
