Default RE: BTE Venture 60 build has Commenced!

Well last night I put the right wing together. The TE is also sanded!! WooooHooooo! The wing went together easier than the 4 Star. Everything fit dead-on! Incredible kit!

Two mods so far. I am leaving out a bay and I cut the front part of each W3 rib to match W1 and W2. This way I can sheet the first two bays all the way across. I find putting Monokote on sheeting easier than open-air ribs. I also believe it will give it a "cleaner" look.

Other mods that are planned:

Balsa cowling
wing servos
aft mounted R and E servos
Sullivan Tailwheel
Turtledeck sheeting
Fuel Tank access hatch
All metal control rods (no plastic)
Enlarged rudder
