Evan, man you kicked butt. Moving to another state, setting up shop, having a baby, videoing and editing your build and finishing your STi all during a world wide pandemic. You are one focus dude and deserve to be part of the Sling builder assistance program. I also give props to your wife, I never saw a bed in your hanger. Peace out ✌🏾
Congrats on the support from the factory for the build video series! Your videos have already helped me speed things up a lot! I’m glad future builders will get that option.. I’d bet more detailed videos might turn the manuals into reference material... 😉
I follow you since the beginning of the build. You made a great job both making it and reporting consistently every week. Interesting to know many hours you spend up to now and to first trials. Congrats. I have started my TSI but as an advanced kit.
Congrats on the Airplane Factory making the right move on bringing you on as an amateur builder consultant. You are a worthy ambassador, if not the only actual Sling builder on You Tube. I hope they refund the cost of your current beta build of their kit, but that your contract to showcase your second build is north of six digits.
Paint is looking great! Your build videos - that’s great to hear, I think they will be helpful for future builders. Mike has talked about it in some of the recent zoom calls, didn’t realize you were going to be the ace up his sleeve! Really cool, good luck with the project!
Super jazzed to hear the news about the video build series! My kit is on order and I’m starting to read the documents now... it’s all really overwhelming at the moment, so I’ll definitely be using that series heavily!
You will need to fill in between those stringers, and a section at the very apex of the cure, (On your lighting cover jig) or your new light cover will have a rippled effect! It must be very smooth, or you will see every little imperfection!
Evan, the video build-manual series sounds great! I'm about a year or so out from being able to afford everything and am especially looking forward to seeing what you've learned from this build, common mistakes or pitfalls, tips and tricks, and so on in the new build series. Thanks! And if I may ask, how many man-hours do you estimate you have in this build so far?

Thanks man. Maybe the pandemic kind of helped though, less distractions!

That’s the goal! Between the updated manuals, video series, and strong community, I think future builders will have a great time

With all the issues that you’ve identified and fixed I would hope the manufacturer would take notice and make some QC changes
They certainly have! I work closely with them, they have a phenomenal design and manufacturing team
I can't wait to see it in the sun. That copper is going to POP!
Congrats on the opportunity.. yours videos and building skills are great.
I so stoked about the announcements regarding the TSI high wing coming out.
I thought I was on the factory mailing list, but I must have missed that.
Coming out fantastic, can't wait to see it assembled!
Congratulations on your announcement of the build assist.
Really nice paint scheme! Nice job

Plane looks really really nice.
Too bad you are not in Canada...but your video will help me a lot.
