I put a coat of primer on in order to help me see where filler/sanding/attention is needed. I was also able to fabricate a simple (if not clunky) elevation system using a sub micro server (Hitec HS55 Feather) and a potentiometer (pot). The pot is larger than I need but it works for now. I may replace this with something smaller in the future but for proof of concept, works really well. I'm able to slow down the elevation speed quite nicely this way. I can also elevate the gun to 80 degrees (which the 250/9 could do for AA purposes) although I'm not sure who I'd be shooting at, at that angle! Maybe Craig (Streetsquid) setting on the bridge but since he's German, so much for that. =)

Anyhow, here a a few progress pics.
