Default RE: BEGINNER'S BUILD - Tower Trainer .40

UP-TO-DATE . . .

I have the top sheeting done on the wing, all the control surfaces are shaped and hinged (temporarily, not glued in) and the sanding and filling will start now [:'(][:'(][:'(]

I was thinking maybe covering the stabilizer BEFORE attaching to the fuselage instead of attaching first as they suggest. Is this possible as the stabilizer slides through a slot instead of just resting on top of a stabilizer base? The fin will be covered first and then installed as it just slides independantly into a top slot.

I will post again soon after the sanding and filling is done. Unless I am told to attach the stabilizer first BEFORE covering as suggested in the plans.
In that case I will post photos of the attached control surfaces.


Oh, and I still have the motor mounts to drill for my engine. I will post pics of that when done.

I will also post pics of the hinged control surfaces later today. Gotta go to work now [:@][:'(]

Til later
