Default RE: Not another 4* 40...

I made alittle more progress tonight. I cut off the cheeks and got the engine mounted. I'm not too happy with the tank height with the engine sitting sideways. If I were to do this again, I'd probably lower the tank floor a little. Hopefully I won't have any serious fuel problems when inverted. I wanted to get going on the cowl tonight but I didn't have any foam for the tank and the hobby shop was closed before I realized it. This means I can't put the front deck sheeting on. I guess I could but I'd rather not try and stuff foam in from the back if I don't have to. Looks like I'll also be using a muffler extension in order to clear the bottom of the fuselage. I'm going to have to stop working on this for about a week due to a business trip. I'll resume when I get back.
