Default RE: GM Precision Sunbird

I've made a little progress. I've got the aileron torque rods installed. I'm going with a single servo for the ailerons even though I usually go with a dual servo set up. It will save on weight and I've used this set up on every Sunbird I have built with no problems. I'll pick out a new high torque servo.. I've also got the wing tips installed and roughly shaped. One small complaint, the wing tip blocks were about 1/4" shorter than the ribs that they are supposed to glue to so I had to laminate some scrap balsa to make up the difference. Not a big deal, I'm just glad I had some 1/4" stock on hand! I should be starting on the fuse this saturday, if I do, I will post pics.
