This decision is a tough one that all builders must make. Luckily, like the landing gear configuration, I don't have to make this decision until I order the fuselage. I am currently leaning towards: Tip Up! Ease of access to Panel. Some think less sexy look. All in All, for now, Tip Up it is. Regards, Jason C.
