Got in a solid day and got central flaps change to be scale and to have adequate clearance. Also created servo mounts and got the throttle servos installed after remounting the engines to the removable firewalls.


Getting close to having the central flaps as scale as possible. Need to do final sanding for better clearance and transition to the fuselage.

Servo mounts made from alum. angle that is sawed out with 8 holes drilled.

Servo bolted in the mount.

I used bolts and nylock nuts to attach the servo. I think the angle is too thin to tap for the servo mounts and have enough strength to hold the servo. I ran out of shorter bolts so had to use the longer ones. I may cut them shorter but may not bother with it.

Mounted the servo with 4 screws and attached the throttle linkage after putting the bras tube around the threaded push rod.

The other engine throttle servo mounted and attached.

Need to install the ignition unit on the one firewall. Getting close on being done on engine install.
