I placed all round the inside edge of the under carriage again from balsa wood 4 cut outs of triangle
to help towards the re enforcement.


After getting the under side sorted i have prepared some trips of fiber glass and an elastic bandage this will help
on the flexibility of the impact when landing.specially at my flying site we fly off rough grounds on tar mark for as.

I covered the two blind nuts with paper tape after changing them as i was not to happy having them all full of rust.
the paper tape will prevent the epoxy getting inside the thread of the blind nut after epoxying it with the fiber glass cloth.
i also added to the strips of balsa wood no top of the bandage to help the two wood structures on the front
and rear of the fuselage where the tune pipe will be resting on.

Under carriage sorted another thing out of the way.
