What did you power it with? Still undecided on what size to use.

I did get a little more done yesterday, didn't spend much time over the weekend, had other projects that needed my attention.

I finished both inner flaps, picked up a 1/48th scale Revell kit of the J model and determined that I do have the correct type of flaps, and from what little I can see of the picture of the actual plane they look the same as the model.

I started on the servo mounts for the flaps, going to have a hatch on each side in the belly for them. I also picked up large Robarts hinges and now they look more appropriate for the size.



One trick I like to use for fitting, but gets messy quickly is to brush graphite on one part and put it together to find out where it is binding, and then sand that area for a better fit, downside, everything turns gray. Thats why the flap looks like it does.
