Well I continued to build and making progress every day, but been very busy at work, so sometimes too tired to do too much. but here are some pics of the progress.
Oh and to answer some of your other question.

1) The fuse in glass work is very good, paint seems to holding ok.
2) The engine mount area seems to have that famous large hole to except that cylinder engine mount you talk about, that I did not get and won't use anyway. I will take a pic of it tomorrow and post.
3) Like a said before the idots did not put a former for the tail wheel, I guess they wanted you to put some cheap wheel on the bottom and wait till it fell off, So I cut the area under the tial wheel and made and installed a former to accept a scale looking tail wheel, Robart AT-160 Fixed, picture later (getting late here)
4)Fitted the Robart landing gear, had to do a alot of domore/doless to get them to fit, OUCH !!!!
5) Added cloth carbine fiber to wign area above the retract to strenghten it.

Here are some pics with more to follow.
