I've been working on the wheel-pant reliefs. (my trip out of town didn't pan out). The CARF system of finding the relief starting points are just that, starting points. Be prepared to mount and dismount the flying wires and wheel-pants repeatedly,making small changes in the pant reliefs, until you've made an opening that will accommodate the F.Ws with no interference without making them overly large. It's a tedious and repetitious process that will have you turning your attention elsewhere (like anything other than building an RC plane) and, if your like me, drinking more than usual.. As of today, I've got the right side done. After assembling and disassembling the FW/WP system quite a few times, you get to where it's a routine.. That's not to say it isn't a chore.

Mark ps, pics to follow..........tomorrow.
