Here is a short video of my recently completed Red Wing air cooled model. I have been working on it here and there for the last year. I finally have it running very wel and am very proud that it has such good manners right now. I came home from work and gave it one spin and she took right off and ran for over an hour and never even had a hiccup. Enjoy.
Check out this video on YouTube:

Bil, it is a PM Research kit. I bought it at the end of last march.

The ignition is a home made buzz coil. I made a couple of the small boxes out of 1/4 thick oak and cut and did all the wood work on the mill using high speed 4 flute windmills. I bought most of the parts from eBay and the batter is a 5 cell 6 volt RC car battery from the hobby shop and is all packed in the box and is charged trough a port and the coil is turned on and Off with a micro toggle switch. I didn't care for any buzz coils that were available so I just built my own using the instructions in the Red Wing prints as modified the design and made them more scale sized.
