Fuselage is pretty much complete now. Just the rudder to cut out and face.
Planking the bottom of the nose was very time consuming, each piece had to be shaped and soaked to bend up to the nose ring. Also aliphatic meant only 2 strips at once. Worth it though, even with a rough sand its come up nice.
Happy with weight, its 880g at the moment with the canopy, so prob be about 900 when its cut out and hinged. So its about 20g lighter than the old one, without using contest grade balsa
