RE: Baron (Royal/Marutaka) 58P
[8D] NICE JOB On THE BARON! I just got a baron kit myself & had a couple of questions. Gas tank(s) location? Are you going to use retracts? If so what kind? Any info would be helpful. Thanks!

RE: Baron (Royal/Marutaka) 58P
Point,
I have a whole lot more to tell you of all the changes I did. I deviated from the entire wing assembly. I built everything in the middle wing out to the flap ends in all light ply. The landing gear needed to have beefer wood under it for the rail were epoxied into balsa laminated with light ply. I took and double up on those ribs over the gear. Forget about following the instructions, they are worthless. I built straight from the plan and if you are a newbie at building, DONT START IT. I have some building pics of the wing if you're interested...Let me know or send me an email...
