Default RE: LT-40 Kit Update: Bolt Wing Mount & Tail Dragger

Here's mine. I started with the kit and made mine a taildragger and bolt-on wing from the start. Thanks to this thread it went very smoothly. Here's a few pics from the build (let's hope this upload works...)

1 - Wing with 4" wide fibreglass cloth to support bolt-holes. I also added balsa filler between the top and bottom sheeting
2 - Plywood bayonet tied into center ribs and spars
3 - Slot for bayonet. Also have ply reinforcing on the front of the former, not shown
4 - I also added balsa filler blocks at the nose
5 - Small nylon tubes on the bottom of the fuse to guide the tailwheel cables, installed at an angle

More to come...
