The shear web mod has been completed and Monokote put over the repairs. I would have worried about it every time I flew the thing. I also painted the canopy inside and will be cutting some bulkheads to fit inside it to see about reducing the problems it has. As for the landing gear I have gone with what is in the kit but have done a few things to beef it up withhout adding much weight. We'll see. BTW the cowl definitely did not fit until I got out the Dremel and removed some wood in a few places.
