Default Accel Katana GS70 Assembly thread

How bout a few pics and stories for the curious.
Arrived in very good condition. I weighed every pc of the plane and the airframe came in at 40 ounces. The gear with screws less wheels weighs 4 oz. I allways start by taking a soldering iron and opening up all hatches, servo openings etc as shown by my first pic.
The first thing to do is glue the wing to the cartridge (for lack of a better term). Slip the cartridge over the wing and into the fuselage. Square it up using the normal cross check methods and mark it. Remove the covering on the wing where it will sit and glue it on with epoxy. Set it back in the wing, check for square and let dry.
