Default RE: Genesis Arf Build (Electric)

Ok...The hard part of the DEPS stuff is finished, and it's not really hard at all......it's just stressful when you cut into the fuse !!! :-) As you can see from looking at the pictures, my left side rail looks like its bowed, but it isn't affecting the CF rod, and there's no bind at all. The funny thing is that when I pull the installation out and place it on the glass table next to my ruler, it's straight as an arrow. My 2 ladder supports are glued in, but everything else has just been trial fit pending the building of a servo support for the elevator servo. In the electric version, the floor behind the wing tube does not exist, so I had to take some 1/16 balsa, and laminate it with 3/4 fiberglass cloth and some Z-poxy finishing resin to build my floor for the servo. I just made it large enough to mount the servo, and have room for the receiver, regulator and battery, as everything forward of the tube will be isolated off for heat protection. I'm Gonna take a break for a couple of hours now that all of the stressful stuff is done !!
