Default RE: Another "Screamin Demon" Delta build

Her are a couple of shots to show how the blending has progressed. At this point two thirds of the center section has been blended, so now it is on to making up the torque rods for the elevons. After I have the torque rods finished I can move on to building the linkage tunnel/cooling exit and tail cone section. I have go t to have this all ready to go before I can blend in the last several inches of the center section and the wing, as well as the root section of the elevons. At this point the major part of the construction is finished leaving only the wingletts and elevons yet to be built up. Even though a lot of sanding and filling needs to be done I think the airframe is getting to the point that you can see it's final shape starting to emerge.
