Default RE: Comp ARF BAe Hawk Build Thread

Ok, latest progress had the wing almost done. Dantley has opted for a Tam pipe so a few adjustments had to be made in the rear of the plane. The pipe is slightly smaller in diameter than the stock pipe so I used some plywood to brace the pipe both top and bottom and to center it in the fuse.

I got the main gear installed, fairly uneventful although the right main is ever so slightly touching the wheel well opening and I have already ground away the lip as much as I can so I will have to see how that goes. Gear door cylinders are installed and servo hatches have been attached as well. All that is left for the wing is to attach the strut doors and smaller outer doors (which I think will be fixed in place with a slot cut in them for the strut to clear as opposed to making them open and close, Dantley??) and then extensions and plumbing.

I also got the rudder hinge pin installed and rudder servo installed and just need to cut the hole for the servo arm and that should wrap up the rudder.
