Default RE: Balsa USA Super Cub Build

Now that the radio installation is finalized, I want to finish off the interior details before covering the fuselage. The front seat provided with the kit appears to be about 1 ½” low. A visit to the Supercubproject.com provided the information necessary to construct scale like front seat support. My research indicates the top of the seat should be about level with the bottom of the side windows, in my case, the front of seat will be 3 ¼” above the floor. The original seat mount was about 1 ½”. The mount I’m building is constructed of ¼” and 3/16” brass tubing. The connections are silver soldered. I’m replacing the ABS plastic floor with 1/16” plywood and building a scale like torque tube and control sticks. Right now I need to get to LHS to stock up K&S tubing, I’m out of stock.
