Here is the shot of the rear compartment which houses and protects the tail servo connectors. The Platform is just 3/32 balsa sheet
supported on two light ply cross pieces. Foil faced ceramic sheet glued on.

We won't be able to test fly this weeekend, just too hot (33 at breakfast time, 42 early afternoon) so we have it down for next Thursday, hopefully there won't be a total fire ban then which precludes flying.

I didn't paint the interior but coated the ply with a thin coat of finishing resin to protect gainst fuel and water ingress.

Other than that I hardly changed a thing and my glue joints , at leat 99% of them looked fine.

I thought the springs in the MLG (I still drool over its quality) were too stiff but a little rearwards pressure and they seem OK so should be perfect for grass field flying.
