So things are close to being ready to do a tethered hover test this weekend!  As things progress over the weekend I'll add a Hover Testing post and update it as things progress. 

The tentative plan ( trying to allow for extra time for the inevitable issues that allows seem to pop up) for the weekend is:

Friday - Mount the remaining propeller and test the propellers and belt system using only the starter 

Saturday - Run the engine on gas at low RPM.

Sunday - HOVER!
