Default RE: BVM Electra Build

The rudder was cut from the vertical stab and hinged. The rudder servo was installed and the cover was fitted. The nose gear assembly has been glued in place in the fuse. The plate in front of the nose gear is supposed to house the steering and mechanical retract servo but since my gear is pnumatic I used the plate to mount the steering servo. I glued some poly ply to the underside of the plate to keep the laser cut parts from falling out. The door opening mechanism has been installed and works with no problems. The intake ducting was glued in place after the mold seams were sanded out. The fan mounting former was glued in place along with the wing mounting formers and the vertical and horizontal stab mounting former. Next steps are to glass the wings and horizontal stabs.
