Default RE: phoenix decathlon

I'm gradually putting mine together, can't call it building.......this thing is so prebuilt! I bench ran my Mag 52 FS yesterday, and it's ready to mount on the plane for completion of the break in. I'm mounting the wheel pants with 4-40 hex head screws and used real axles (the nut and bolt arrangement provided in the kit doesn't stay put for me), I have put some striping tape along the fuse, am awaiting servos and battery which should arrive today or tomorrow. I want to "extra" glue around the firewall, but its hard to reach in there, guess I'll have to think of something to get it done with. Also, on the wing struts, I extended the "pinched" length by about triple so the parts will mate up smoothly.

Patience is not my strong point. [sm=72_72.gif]
