Tom,
I kept the wing the stock "length".
Servos will be JR ball bearing 537 throughout.

Engine is mounted on the firewall prior to firewall install.
A long mount is need for a 2 stroke application.
Distance to the prop hub is crucial as the engine is enclosed.

Fuse construction is quite unique and shows some creative thinking, planning, and constuction technique by the designer.
The more I build, the more I am pleased with what I see.

The photo shows the first construction phase of the fuselage. It fits together like a woman and a shoe sale.
