RE: Messerschmitt Bf 108 Taifun ARF from Global/ VQ

The gear setup is pretty much the same as on my Hangar 9 Spitfire. It seems pretty conventional. I don't see a problem with reliability.

HAs anyone gotten to the engine mount? I mounted mine sideways as instructed in the manual. It sticks WAY to far out, I think inverted is the way to go.

How are you guys handling the wing bolts? I'm used to the wing bolt head sitting on a plastic piece not naked wood. Are you guys ok with that or are you going to rig something up?
