Default RE: Sig Hog Bipe Build

started building my Hog - I'm really excited for this one. I'm building the top wing first, then bottom wing, fuse, tail feather (in that order). Only "mods" planned are dual aileron servos and moving landing gear fwd about 1/2". I plan on throwing in a Saito 100 (if Santa pulls through for me!)

One question i had while reading through the manual was how to cover over the inter-wing strut mounts. It seems like it would be difficult to do a nice covering job with these installed. Have any of you permanently installed them AFTER your covering was compete?

wish me luck!


oh, BTW: I DO NOT plan on using the sig control rods for the elevator and rudder - see attached picture for length differences due to temperature change. I used them on my SSE and 4*60 and have to trim them every time I bring them out. I will be using 4-40 rods for these surfaces.
