My Cessna build actually started a few weeks ago, but with work and everything I've been really busy and finding time to update things on this thread has been hard...
I finally found some time today to get caught up on things and kick this thing off with some pictures from the first stage of the build...
After opening the box, I found everything was packed really well, after reading all the instructions through a couple of times I got going on the first steps...
The first part of the build was hinging the flaps and ailerons, in the first picture you can see the detail of the strips on the flaps...
In the second picture you can see the same detail on the ailerons...
There were no surprises using the epoxy to glue the hinges into place for the flaps and ailerons, it all went quite well.
I'm not a big fan of these two piece plastic hinges but this is what came with the kit and the holes were already precut so I used them.
