Default RE: GP Waco?

First, Yes, the dummy engine is out until the first flight, check for any engine or mount problems then I'll install it. Upper cabane screws are a pain to install, just like the GP Super Stearman. There is quite a bit of bend stress pushing wing down to the rear top cabane mounts. With 0 degree incidence on horizontal tail and bottom wing, the meter shows 1 degree neg incidence on top wing. That should get the bottom wing flying before the top wing. Your comments on this please. Use 24" or better 30" extension for left top wing. 12 inch barely makes it to the access slot. Last, just no way to hide the top wing servo wires going down into the fuse. Comments on that one too please. Just too difficult to make a scale tail wheel that would work. What do you guys think of my alternate install Gotta go, MM
