My ACU licence arrived about a week ago and I”m just waiting for Straightliners to release the 2019 dates. They.ll be at the usual venues but apparently there’s also some new venues for 2019 too

The spacer arrived from Holland so I put that in place for now

And with the engingine in the correct place I could mount my pump and a few electrics

Getting there, one step nearer to start up

Trying to sort out my loom and solder things. Anyone got any tips on soldering wire to wire. I keep ending up with F@cking huge blobs of solder. I burnt my fingers three times last night too

when I solder wires together, flux them, tin both bits first, then more flux, hold them together and heat up with the soldering iron and they should join, add a little flux cored solder at the joining stage to help them flow, works for me, good luck.
