RE: CL 215 form KMP

Installed the elevator joiner while the HTs were temp mounted on the fuselage. Be sure to follow the hinge line when marking the spot for drilling the fuselage. I caught myself following the...

RE: CL 215 form KMP

I test fitted the horizontal tails (HT) to the fuselage after drilling the carbon fiber rods and I noticed some gaps between the HT and the fuselage. I can close the gaps by pulling on the HT in the...

RE: CL 215 form KMP

It has been a few days since my last entry. I have a landscaping project at my home that has to get done so I have devoted most of the last two weekends to it.

RE: CL 215 form KMP

I read RZAPP's entry and sure enough, there are some instructions that are out of step. If anyone else is building this ARF, do not glue on the elevator and rudder to the stabilizers as instructed...
