Default RE: Vertigo II Build Thread

Ok, after a lot of sanding, fitting, puttying, sanding, measuring...it's ready for molding.

I projected the plans onto the fuselage with the overhead projector to make sure the wing is in line with the thrust line (red line) and we lucked out, everything looks good...knock on wood.

Some guys are showing up to build night tonight but I don't think we'll get any glass on it since we need to glue strips on the underside to keep the clay from pushing through and fill in around the wing saddle.

I chose not to paint the fuselage so I'll get several layers of wax and PVA on it to make sure it releases.
