Thought you guys might want a look at my new shell for the Revo. It didn't quite turn out the way I wanted initially, but I think I salvaged it pretty well.

Comments welcome.

Hi, I am currently building an SE5A model from a kit that i was given a few years ago and i have got to the point where i need to cover it and install the radio and engine. I will have no problem with the installing but i have no idea what engine to use or what covering to put on it. The guide tells me it should weigh around 6lbs (2.7kg) has a 51" wingspan and suggests a .35-.45 2 stroke engine or a .40-.60 4 stroke engine. I would however like to use a diesel engine in it so an alternative diesel suggestion would be appreciated. The guide suggests that a suitable covering would be antique Polykote or antique Solartex but then goes on to mention a polytex :confused:
N.B. I am 18 and this is the first time i have ever made or seen an RC model aeroplane, I have made a balsa Swordfish powered by an elastic band so i only need help with engine choice and covering please.
Thank you very much for your time.
Laurence.
