Default RE: 3D Foamy Advantage Bipe - build thread

Well the airframe is now 1 piece. It's all glued together and wow is it rigid, especially for a foamy. There were no surprises gluing it together, basically just run some glue on the parts being assembled and dang near snap them together. The aileron cross connects are completed, and the other pushrods are all assembled. The rudder is going to be pull-pull using monofilament line. I decided to use a pushrod on the elevator.

The rudder and elevator servo locations have been altered from the current design to nearly match the original locations. I just prefer them and by moving the rudder servo forward I can use pull-pull and eliminate a servo extension.

This plane should fly by this weekend.
