Now that is one nice custom job. I studied it closely and it looks to me like you really planned it out well. I love pvc. I put it up there with great inventions like the cordless/keyless drill with built in torque settings and bubble level. Where would we be without them... I shudder to think...
Thanks, Aaron!

Got the idea from a styrofoam Robart cradle - the angled fuselage support brackets provide a very stable, easy to use work surface. They allow me to rotate the fuselage to work on the model at different angles, which drove the need to lift the yokes to clear the landing gear.

PVC, CA, pop rivets, duct tape, screwdriver, crescent wrench and pliers... What else do you need?! OK - maybe a hammer now and then (or is that what they make crescent wrenches for?).

Any update on the fuel cell/RTV test?

Cheers!
