Default RE: Building the 7th Chadwick

Happy New Year!

Progress has been made. I planked the nacelles and cut out for the LG. Installed the retracts and found I had to cut even more. Installed the speed controllers, switches and an arming plug. Sanded, mated the cowling's and found I had to bend the exhaust flaps out and away. Used the heat gun. Caution a second too much heat and you have melted plastic instead of exhaust flaps. Pulled the cowling's off and sanded them in prep of painting. No picture today, nothing to show as the nacelles are dissambled.
