Mike,
Thank's for your kind comments and I have to say I love your colour scheme. I live on the east coast of Australia if you look at a map or google earth the most easterly point. S 28.50.00 E 153.33.7 Now as far as the struts go possibly a little heavier. I have not flown a 701 with the tube but they tell me they are noisy and I imagine they create a lot of drag at higher speeds. 5,200RPM is a comfortable 75-78 Knots and another 100-150 is 80kts. Pilot + 70lts fuel at 60knots is around 1400 ft per min. climb. And they look great!
Regards
Bruce
