Working on the turbine bay today, finishing up the airlines and installed the air tanks. I mounted the two PB bus boxes which convert signals from regular servos to a bus type signal. The bottom hatch needs a center support because its flimsy and doesnt fit well. I am gluing two ply pieces in the middle and will add a screw on each side to hold the hat closed. I also installed the two fins which have threads inside the fins, it looks like a blind nut. Tomorrow I have to make two turbine mounts since the cheetah diameter is a bit small for the stock mounts. Once these are in the turbine will go in follow by the pipe which just about finishes up the jet. I have to wait for the rest of the lights for the brain cube before I install the light kit.
