I think I am ready to maiden. I tied down all the wiring neatly as I could, checked all nuts, bolts, clevises, collars, etc. Then I assembled the whole plane like at the field: mounting the wings, connecting servos, adding keepers, and finally screwing down the canopy bolts. Next up is trying to start the new DLE-35 in the backyard between rain that is forecast all this week here. If that goes well, I will maiden when we have the next good weather. I am anxious to do that and report back here!
