Sorry, I thought nitro was an umbrella description (noob!).
Anyway, I got the tail on last night. Bought some balsa strips at the shop near my work and I shaved and sanded two shims that were thick enough to align the tail. I think it came out pretty good, but I try not to keep looking for problems!!
Gonna do the landing gear today to start. I started last night after I epoxied the tail, but the mount holes in the aluminum are too small for the included screws. Out to drill them this morning. I also cut and sanded the trim pieces that go over the gear mains up at the fuselage. They will be a nice touch once finished.
It should really start to look like a plane now, so I have to get my order in for a prop and battery. I WILL use a lipo. That's what the guy suggested that I bought the rest of the stuff from. But he wasn't sure if the battery tray was going to be large enough for the one he had in mind so we held off on that purchase.
Stay tuned.
