You would realy enjoy building one of these. They are not hard to build at all. I would have all the plane built by now if I spent three to four hours a day on it.

Sounds like you got real lucky on that wing tip drag. Are you running a DA, BME, " " ", ?

I have built a foam core type plane with a hobby knife, hand saw, and a long sander before. Just takes a little more time.

Got the rudder and fin cut and faced. Now I just need to work on the wings. My buddy wants me to use a set he has and doesn't need any more. Not sure If I'll build new ones yet.

The only place I know of selling Colombo Anderson kits is Aero Works. They have the full line of Colombo Anderson. Their web site is www.aero-works.net

Watching yours come together has got me anxious to repair mine when I get my Yak off the table.

Finished up the stab and elevators and got the hard points in for the controle horns. Once I have the fin and stab glued to the fuse, I'll final cut the elevators for proper rudder throw.

I'm thinking about getting one of these in the 31% size and putting the new 3W 80i in it. The fuse looks pretty simple to build, but my question is how to do the servo mounts? Are there already slots cut in the wing for them or does the builder have to do it?

Also, does it come with foam for leveling the elevators and wings for when you cut out the surfaces or how is that done?

ben,
If you have ever built a larger Lanier kit, they are very similar. The wings and tail section does come cradeled in the foam blocks, even though they are already sheeted. So you can cut strait and level on a ban saw. The servo mounts in the wings have to be cut out and rails glued in. It's not very tough. I just use the hole that goes through the wing for the servo extention as a guide for the cord and I put the servo about in the center of the aileron. I'll post some photos of the 31%er I built last winter.
