Thanks for the comments Miguel......as all 3 of us are building independently, we do things slightly different.....as soon as I get a chance, I will snap a few more photos of how we have mounted servos, etc......

I would be interested in where everyone is planning to mount the batteries......sounds like everything should be way up forward in the nose.....I was going to build a little platform that extends into the nose cone for one of the packs, sort of like the KingCat, but much shorter of course....enough for one Lithium or NiCad pack......it will just clear the top of the N/G retract.......lots of thick epoxy around the nose ring on the fuse to tap into for the platform.......not sure yet where I am going to mount the other battery(ies)........

I did find, like you did, that the hinging was a bit of a PITA......although the hole were pre-drilled, a couple of mine were off, and the depth of the aft spar was not quite right, especially the rudder.....like most things I do, the first time takes forever with lots of headscratching and wishing evil thoughts on the kit manufacturer, but the second time, I can do it blindfolded......

If anyone is able to post photos of how you set up the nose gear door actuation, I would also appreciate that.....I am planning at the time to do it much like I have seen on Tam's photos, sort of like the Bandit with a hinged front 1/2 of the door attached to the strut, and using a cylinder on the aft portion.....not sure about cylinder location.....
