Big Night Sky,
  • Insurance
  • Hangarage
  • Cleaning / washing
  • Registration transfer (one off)
  • 100 hourly / annual
Also, make sure you include any time life'd items in the fixed costs.
For example:
  • paint
  • hoses
  • prop (factor it in if you don't intend to run it out of life before time...)
  • radio / instrument checks
  • corrosion checks (assuming it's not a new aircraft and someone, somewhere in the world finds a cracked spar on your model plane in the near to medium term)
  • and there's more but I'm not on my PC with the uber spreadsheet.
Cheers,
Flog.
