Default RE: Dymond 52" Tiger moth

After the detail work on the cowling, I made holes for the needle valve and the low idle adjustment. I figure once the engine was installed and the cowl on, it would be too much of a pain to adjust the low idle. You may not want to do this for looks, but with the muffler and prop on, I did not want to hassle with it. This is a new Saito engine and I know I will have to make subtle adjustments. Taping card stock to the fuselage, I made the marks for these holes along with the hole for the muffler. Reattaching the cowling, I transfer the marks and then cut out the holes with a Dremel tool.

More to come!
