Working on the last bit of construction, gun mounting.
I had two options... Go with the "Sport Scale" mounting vs the scale mounting. I went with the sport scale.
The difference between the two would be mounting the guns to the surface of the fuselage vs cutting into the fuselage and mounting them below the surface (Tighter fit).
I'm struggling with getting this project done so I am going to surface mount them. There is quite a bit of structure under the mounting locations and I really don't feel like modifying that at this point. Additionally, mounting them on the surface will allow them to be added after the model is covered, simplifying that process. The balsa USA Manual has them surface mounted and a few other models I have seen follow this trend.
So far I have the upper mount made. I have the lower mount drawn out and will build it this weekend.
