Bit more done, fettling for the nose steering servo done and it fits quite well. Had to swap one of the mounting screws for a cap dome head type then file that down a little.
Servo arm has been shortened a bit so that it does not get in the way of the exhaust tube. I'll be using an aluminium arm and Sullivan 4-40 Gold Clevis with the clips on each end.
I may need a heat deflector, we will see. I will definitely have one on top of the engine box to shield the ignition module.

Carbon fibre has been glued on using LY3600 laminating resin.
Not a bad day's work.

After the CF had been done.





Plenty of clearance within the cowl.

Has about 5mm clearance.


Start of the carbon fibre application.


Carbon fibre bandage applied with LY3600 resin and exposed timber parts had a coat of thinned resin brushed on.
