Hi Folks,
It has been a while since I've posted a build, in part due to lower build frequency, and in part due to lack of time and energy to post builds. But with a few days off, and the responsibilities of the holiday largely behind, I've got just enough enthusiasm to show you what I'm working on.
A couple years ago I built something called Project Red Queen:

It flew great, but the recovery system I had using rear eject wasn't optimized and it crashed on first flight. I rebuilt it a bit, and had a better second flight, but then retired it from flight.
I've been meaning to make a zipperless version of it, and finally started a build of a BT-55 downscale, with some modifications. I might call this the Red Prince, or perhaps find a different name theme. Anyway, the build is essentially done, but I have to figure out a finishing scheme. Stand by for a catchup on the build... then some finishing decisions.
