Default 1/4 scale Piper Tri-Pacer

Originally I was going to hinge the doors. After some thought, I decided to dowel mount them because complete removal makes the access for wing mounting a lot easier.

The door handles are fabricated from brass tube and brass sheet. They are really just a simple pivoting handle with a piece of piano wire pushing into the door frame post. I used aspring from an RC car motor brush to keep the latch latched.

I posted another progress picture in the gallery.
