[HR][/HR]Didnt get as far as I had hoped this weekend, but got some little stuff done, all control horns screwed and glued in place,


Inner gear doors in place (forgot the pic, will get one with wings on this week)


Added a support to the rudder linkage, this stiffened it up ALOT, without it had a fair amount of flex/slop.

Tail cone on.

Made patches for the gap in front of the horizontal from the spare covering sheet.

Painted the LG legs white, didnt have the tape to do the wheels yet, thatll be tonight, then I can finish the gear and glue on the doors finally.

Whats left? Im going to get some bolts and blind nuts for the cowl, it has you just screw it into wood, but I think with the little gasser I need a little more hold power.


Fuel tank, Setup the radio and the gear sequencer, cut exhaust holes in the cowl, and it will need some clearance for the plug cap, prelim balance to see where the batteries and regs will live.
