Well discovered an error in the manual, so have to do some surgery to the very rear of the fuse to correct it.

See these two parts?



They are supposed to go inside at this location. Didn't see them until I started looking for the instrument panel, and found the tail wheel mounts, discovered they are too big, at which point the fuse was already glued front to rear. So tonight I went through the manual again, and sure enough, these two parts are not specified, but it you look REALLY close at the image in step 4, you can actually see them, and no where else in the manual.



I was confused why the instructions mention the parts sheet and then go on to say the square balsa stock. Going to mark these up and talk to Mike if I see him at the show this weekend.

So a small set back, but nothing I can't fix, just glad I spotted it now and not after resizing the tailgear mounts. This also explains why the bottom sheeting is wider at that point. There are also quite a few pieces that look like others but don't fit anywhere.

So between the firewall installation which is missing, and these two pieces not mentioned, the only issues are the manual as all the pieces so far fit well.

What would make the manual better is reference marks between the parts sheets and each step, leave the parts sheets as is, but put letter/number combo marks on each part and the reference them in each build step (WP1).
