Default RE: Scale Dynamics AT-6 Texan Build Thread

Hey Sean,

I'm glad to see it made it safely. What do you think of of the kit? Can you believe how light the fuse is? I was shocked... I worked on my Texan off and on over the weekend. I finished both outboard flaps and attached the leading edge. I cut, but have not glued the top / rear 1/16" ply flap pocket. I need do some minor adjustments to the flaps before I attach it. I also built the radio tray and temporarily mounted it to the inside of the firewall. I can't glue it in until I finish the motor mount, because it looks like it might interfere with the blind "T" nuts on the inside. Also I made a trip to the local hobby shop to buy a set of 48" (Blue-stiff) Gold-N-Rods. The 36" ers were too short to make it all the way to the radio tray. Here are some pictures of the cockpit "kit" to get your juices flowing.
