Default monday's big report...

hey everyone,
mike here; just joined the wing, feel like i just survived some kind of nasty surgery... had odd prob.'s with parts r10 and r11 not fitting right... sandpaper on a radial-saw blade solved that prob.. when i built the right half, i built it a little skewed (trailing edge to the right). this caused a gap in the trailing edge where the wing joins when it was lined up straight. so i epoxied the spars and ply center webbing and leading edge and all that stuff in front but left trailing edge unglued when it is all dry, i will pull right trailing edge to left to get rid of skew...

it wasn't so much a kit prob. as builder error...

anyway, it is goin' real well...

color scheme update... i will be covering the plane in jet white and insignia blue monokote, with insig. blue cowl. there will large white panels covering the middle of both left and right wings. left will have a large black futaba decal. right will have 'Laser 3D' decal. i am debating using the decals they send with it or using this one i made up. (below). that's all i have thought of so far (sumthin' like the box, except better)

enough for tonite...

Crazy Mike
