Default RE: Kangaroo-NitroPlanes-Assembly

This morning I added a guide. just a block of balsa fitted across the inside of the fuse, traced the rod into the wood and then cut a groove, hardened it with thin cya and capped it with a wide landing gear strap.

Next, to make a cover to hide the ugly holes carved open to install the retract and mount. 1/16 plywood and some black ultracote. 3/8 square balsa stock was used on the inside of the fuse for the #2 screws to hold the cover and wheel well.
