Status: offline 		ok ordered some parts I needed

work has slowly begun.

There are a few problem areas.
Nothing major.
I noticed the stabs do not fit into the provided holes, they will have to be dremeled out a bit.

Also a missing part here and there.

like this part from the websites photo manual did not come in the kit, the elevator servo mount

They had to be cut and modified.

I think I found a tiny mistake, nothing major.
Looks like they made the plug with one intake slightly off center.



That's so that in the event of a flameout, it will go into a gentle right hand circle. LOL

Could they possibly be replacement landing gear rails? I don't see how they would arbitrairly send a second set; or maybe they go to another kit instead. How long are they?

Not sure of the purpose, maybe fuse stiffening?

Status: offline 		Ok new problem.

The brass collet that is supposed to engage the bearing in the control rod, on one side, is too large in diameter and interferes with the control rod when tightened. Bob's solution was to reduce the diameter of the collet, (very carefully with a dremel wheel) until it fits inside the hole in the control rod.
