Default RE: MARUTAKA cessna Skymaster Kit questions

Got some photos of my Royal(Murataka) Skymaster 336. I have a SuperTigre 40 on the front and a Fox 40BB on the rear.
It is covered with .75oz glass, primed ready to paint. As you can see i have already started painting the control surfaces. It weighs 8 lbs now with the engines installed. It is going to be a real pain putting 3 servos in the center section of the wings. I built the kit years ago when using one servo per aileron was unheard of. so I have the aileron , rudder, and elevator in the wing with bell cranks in the booms
I'll keep posting photos as the painting progress's. Its going to be a navy version. Blue yellow and white. I have built a 1/6 scale 2.75 in rocket launcher for under the wings. Just wish there was a set of retracts available for this size model.
