Default RE: Another 4*60 on the building board

RCKen, I hope you will be around more now as I value your opinions and advice, but I wasn't trying to guilt trip anyone[sm=spinnyeyes.gif]. As far as the covering comment, I just meant that I posted my first very rough draft yesterday and not a single comment. I was eluding to the fact that it must be perfect or so bad that no one wanted to hurt my feelings. I was just kidding either way and wanted to get some people to start commenting.

As far as the servos go, I used about a 1/16" shim when marking the holes, but there was a little touching when I tightened things down. I am aware of the vibration issue, so I will make sure during final assembly to sand/shift as needed to get them aligned properly and to avoid crushing the grommets. Do you think I should reinforce the hardwood with small pieces of tri-stock? Not sure if it is necessary (not in the instructions either). I used epoxy to attach them by the way.

Here are a couple pics of the fuse joining including my first action shot, hehehe. I was just posing though, I would have had glue everywhere if I tried to do it while shooting the pic. Also, notice I have the other half laid out opposite to avoid the dreaded two of the same side issue [sm=tongue.gif].

I am prolly going to skip flying tomorrow to build and just fly Sunday, so, there should be more to come this weekend.
