Default RE: CMP P-26

Hi folks,

Sorry it’s been awhile but I finally have a bunch pictures to show. The first two pictures are the elevators when mounted to the stab. This first picture shows the elevators extend past the stab about 1/4. I had to "peel" the covering on the tips and sand them down to size. Once done, I re-ironed the covering. The stab is centered on the fuse; CMP just made the elevators too long. Also, I made an elevator joiner wire so I wouldn't have to use a "Y" connection. I painted the engine and did the initial cutouts for cooling. I did found the silver paint peeled. I might have to repaint the sliver. Also, CMP provided a wooded cowl ring. I'm painting it white before mounting it into the cowl. Otherwise, the wood would not be protected from fuel. The other pictures are the pushrods. The pushrods seemed to be made of carbon fiber tubing. But, I'm going to use Dave Brown pushrods instead. I've started to break-in the 91CD. So, until next time, take care and keep the questions and comments coming.

Dave
