Default Thunder Tiger Trainer-pre building

A friend that I work with bought the Tiger Trainer 40. I did the final assembly for him....Very well built plane.....watch the little exit hole in the back of the fuselage where the elevator pushrod comes out....you'll probably have to enlarge the hole a bit so the clevis doesn't hit anything when the elevator is moving....also, make sure you keep the tail feathers very square when you epoxy them.....his horizontal stab didn't set square in the fuselage and we had to stack stuff under one half of the stab to correct it while the epoxy set. Also, make sure your wing is on the plane when you do this step.
Plane is very light and flew great with a Thunder Tiger GP .42.
