Little update on the Diamond Build.

Fitted all the carbon fiber servo covers for the flaps and ailerons. This process basically just calls for using a perma grit tools and
removing some material. Overall, the fit is really good with a nice tight seam. Ready for holes to be drilled and countersunk.

Nose landing gear with direct servo put together. Should be for a neat and easy install
Main landing gear assembled and awaiting install in the wing.

Tonight i'll be measuring up the servo wiring and getting them ran along with the landing gear airlines. It was chore trying to run tag lines inside the structure.
It took a good time fishing two nyrods inside the wing. We will be updating this on future kits with strings attached inside for easy pulling of the servo wire and airlines.

Still have some pics left to take and more posting tomorrow.

And "Happy Veterans Day"
