Had a late start due to work on a Sunday but I did manage to finish up the nose gear and cut out the nose door. (MOD ALERT) It turned out pretty good and the offset hinges were easy to deal with once I figured out the method. The hot glue gun is great to tack the hinges down and trial fit. I added a lip around the inside of fuselage to cover the gap around the door. I installed the steering servo as well, used 2.5 mm screws and locknuts to secure it. Since it is such a small control rod I used the 3mm threaded rod supplied with the kit and two dupro HD ball ends. I also installed the hi-flow clunk and in the tank, I had a little face palm moment with my tank so I had to do some repairs. I was planning to add two one inch strips of carbon fiber around the tank anyway. They tank is fiber glass and a little flimsy so this will help.
This leaves the bell mouth mount and the rudder locking pin to install, then I get to fun part! Equipment install and setup!!!
I have three videos uploading as well shows the my first attempt at a gear door. Cheers!
