    MR Aerodesign's 120" Porter

    Hi Guys, another MR Aerodesign Pilatus Porter kit build. https://mraerodesign.securicom.ca/en...fm?ProduitID=8
    I bought the full kit with the landing gear option and 6" Skylite wheels. My first engine choice was an RCGF 50 cc twin but it would have required extensive cowl mods to install so I chose the Revolution R-50. Finish will be the Red Bull scheme with Ultracoat and I'll have Callie Graphics make the graphics for me.

    The kit is supplied with full size plans with separate sheets for both wings and a very nice instruction book. Awesome laser cutting on the 1/8" ply !

    Rudder and elevator sero mounting is accessed through the rear side door. The other pictures are the sub floor of the main cabin area with 1/4" ply gear mounts that still need to be installed.

    Very nice looking kit.....they spent some time in CAD with that baby!
    Vintage wood is the BEST! But....every now and then a plastic missile can be quite enjoyable!

    The Red Bull scheme will look really good! Your helper in the first pic looks a little perplexed...
