Default RE: Ts Oxalys build

Hi

some more work has been done!

wing mounts are ready , used 3mm ply instead off the supplied ones they was to short.
I also swapped the the bolts and tubes that was meant to go through the wing to carbon tubes and nylon m6 bolts , make a 20 gr save on this .
The plywood wing mounts are made off high quality ply and where the tread are done i add one doubler off 3mm ply so its total 6mm thick , its drilled and tread with m6 and soaked with thin CA and re tread, simpel and strong.

I am also going to change the stab carbon tube with another one (thinner walls) and saved 15 gr on this.
Made the holes for stab tube and found some i didnt like at all ...the stab will not fit if i dont make a rellay hard press to the fuse, i have to add some at the stab root , maybe some filler so it rest nicely to the fuse, not good when its a plane that are painted . It was alomst 3mm opening at both sides in the front off stabs! TS check your jigs and adjust this!

thats all i manage to do this weekend and tomorrow i traveling to the nothern Norway to contiune to revind the biggest water powred genrator here , so it will take 2 weeks until i can do any more !!
