Our engineering team of Rich, Bob and Carl are full speed ahead on the project, with lots of intangible work currently on the front burner. Things like drawing review, creating bill of materials and working with vendors to produce sample parts.
We have been a little delayed by the need to re-engineer the frame, as the 3.75" streamline tubing that forms the foundation of the frame is no longer available from any vendors including the mill. This has pushed back our first frame by about 2 or 3 weeks as an approved alternative is engineered.
We received our test aluminum spar this week, initial test are very promising, with official test just a few weeks away.
