RE: Lightning Build
Nice build Jeff. Don't tell Vern, but I might have to get a set of plans from you and scale them down about 60%... Something to hone my skills with around the aerodrome...

RE: Lightning Build
Hello Jeff:
Jeff This is Lynn Burks in California and I would like to obtain a set of prints or pdf of the prints. What is the procedure and cost or should I say how much do I send you for the prints. Thanks Lynn Burks ( [email protected] )

LIGHTNING PARTS AND WINGS ARE NOW AVAILABLE!
Just in time for the winter building season, Eureka Aircraft now has CNC cut fuselage parts available for the Lightning. Wing and stabilizer cores and printed plans are also availible. If you are interested in building a Lightning, you can now do so without the hassle of cutting by hand.

Congrats, hope to see some of these at the events. My build has slowed down considerably. I got the fuse built and am finishing the sheeting on the bottom. Could you post some photos of the internal set up you used for your battery mount/tray.
Thanks,
Ed

Thanks from me also, Jeff
That will help with the layout. I was guessing that where things were placed for bal and was very close.
Final will depend on motor. Am very close to placing an order to Don; just wanted to pick up the new printed plans to see if I needed to make any changes and decide if I wanted to cut cores or go with Don's.
Looking forward to a great build next few months.

RE: Lightning Build
Hei Jeff,</p>
Thanks a lot for the plans!
They are a true work of art and engineering. It's very kind of you to share this great work.
Jeff, I already copied the entire thread but I noticed that there are some pictures laking in the begining of it. Could you send them to me or repost in the thread if possible, please.
Thanks a lot again !!
Marcelo
