Default RE: Tiger 60 Build Thread

Been a while since any real progress has been made - work, family, etc.

Pics 1-2 Servo mounts and cap strips installed and wing rough sanded.

Pic 3 Center trailing edge installed. I trimmed 1.5" off the outer ends of the t/e strip to increase the overall length of the ailerons. I also encountered the same problems that others have with the thickness of the wing t/e after the sheeting is installed. I ended up sheeting the t/e pieces with the leftover shear web stock from the kit (hence the stripes in the pieces). There was also a fair amount of sanding required on the wing t/e sheeting to reduce the thickness to match the aileron stock which was closer to the wing thickness than the inner t/e pieces.

Pic 4 Some of the initial fuse pieces laminated - firewall and both fuse sides with the doublers.
