Well, this weekend proved to be very fruitful. I have the fuselage completed and I am ready to start on the wings. This kit really is an easy build. I have been very impressed. A few things you will notice as you walk through the pictures. First, I installed an extra gear mounting block where the back mount will go for the float bracket. I also am going to be using an aftermarket set of landing gear instead of the music wire ones that come with the kit. There is nothing wrong with those, I just prefer to use the stamped aluminum type of gear over bent music wire. I did leave the gear retainers though so I can use them to mount the floats. All together, I couldn't be happier. At the pace things are going, My goal is to have the plane together by labor day weekend and to maiden it then. The only thing I am still waiting on are the waterproof servos I ordered for the wings and the covering. Both should be in this week so it looks like things are going nicely.
