Engine mount and radio box lid are finished.



Radio lid is vertical grain Cherry, and the engine mount is Baltic Birch plywood and Carmelized Maple plywood. 8 coats of clear natural finish.

Just a little more hull work and its ready for fiberglass. After I get the engine mount installed, and radio lid stand-offs, I'll bolt the engine down and add the rest of the electronics and I'll get a base weight RTR minus 'glass and finish. Its super light still.
