For me, I hate setting the horizontal stab and squaring up the wing.
Absolutely hate this step.
Brian,
I'm surprised no one picked up on this? It appears as though you put the wing in after the tail feathers? Did I read that correctly?
I always set my wing in place first. Totally in place, screws and all. THEN I set my stab measuring off of the wing. If the stab is square and aligned, the vert stab is easy to put in place.
I really live to build, especially scratch building, but I have never made two left or two right wings by mistake.
I guess I never realized this as an issue. I don't remember a kit that ever mounted the wing 1st... The wing is usually always squared off the center of the rear fuse, or the tip of the horizontal to the tip of the wing.
I've been studying Joe Bridi lately. On his Super Kaos, he mounts the horizontal 1st, then he sets the wing to the horizontal. Builders preference I guess.
raptureboy-
Hinges for sure...
I'll second that too.

Really Brian, how can you hate ANY step in building a kit???
Don't know that I
hate any part of it... but I do dread a few steps.
Brian
edit... I guess I did use the word hate... oh well.
