Default RE: MY KADET LT-40 BUILD

FSM (fuselage servo mount) glued in place with thin CA.
Because of my Kadet LT-40 being nose heavy due to the bigger engine than recommended (my .46 instead of the .40) I had to reinstall the ply piece originally removed from FB-R (fuselage bottom rear) in front of former F3 to accommodate the battery pack and receiver that I must place behind the servo mount to properly balance the model. Needed that piece glued back in to prevent the receiver and battery pack punching through the covering material. With them placed there instead of in front of the servo mount as instructed the model balances out perfectly level.

Any ideas from my fellow LT-40 owners on how I can keep the battery pack and receiver in the front under the fuel tank as recommended, please share your thoughts. I would much rather have them under the tank floor as in the plans.


Well now that my past updates are completely posted now, it is time for me to update my present building photos so I can post my to-date work that is being completed at this time.
