The way model airplane jet engines are developing I'm thinking a 4-pod underwing configuration for a 10 can't be too far off.
Seriously, it's the most fun thing I do---- getting to meet all of the wonderful builders, and sometimes their families, and helping insure they safely get their new toy airborne. I don't think there is a more rewarding side to aviation.

Outstanding!
Great job Phil. I remember way back the first time we met when you and your wife walked up while I was building at EYQ Wieser Airpark.
You are going to love it!
