Default RE: WACO YMF

Here’s the start of the ¼ scale Waco from Pica’s blown up plans. The wings will be three piece using wing tubes. I used four 5/16x5/16 spares and 5/16 leading edge I wasn’t sure I could get the sheeting to make the bend on the bottom side but after soaking it good it worked out there shouldn’t be much sanding doing the LE this way. I’m kind of changing the rules as I go so please jump in if you see any problems with what I’ve done so far.
Next I will be making the aluminum brackets for the struts & flying wires.

Steve,
I beleave the 1/4 scale Waco has a 10 1/4" cowl?
