Default RE: Craft Air Cowboy Build

I've come to a bit of a slow down lately, I've run out of parts! I want to have the servo's & fuel tank in hand to get the locations right when I do the fuse & finish the wings. I did take the time to join the 2 wing panels. I did a couple of things here, since this is a scratch build and I'm not a "profili" owner - the 2 innermost ribs were by guess and by golly. Certainly exposing my lack of skill & patience. The wing joiner / reinforcments are 1/8" birch ply. I drill holes in them with a sharpened stick pin so I could locate the reinforcements on the LE & TE. I also cut a "way too big" access holes in W1, W2 & the 1st W3 so that it would be easier to run the electrical to the aileron servo's out on the wing. The wing still needs to be sheeted and servo bays added for the ailerons. There's also the small matter of hinging the ailerons and I haven't received the hinges yet. The wonders of small town living. I added the engine info, this plane is very electrifiable as built!
