Default RE: Flair Puppeteer Trust Angles

Thanks for the quick reply. On your advice I've gone ahead and bent them both the same (and while I was at it made sure all the angles were the same). I also bent the top ends so that they were level. One of my mods will be to file off the square edges to the aluminum bar so that later I can wrap it with tape and paint it PC10.

Functional mods:

1. Pull-pull system for rudder and elevator
2. Two servos in the lower wing
3. Sprung UC

Aesthetic mods:

1. Cut ailerons all the way through the wing tips
2. Sheet only front half of fuse box and add stringers to side of back half
3. Better skid
4. Quicky faux rib-stitching (just torn strips of solartex).
5. Aluminum sheet side cowlings

I'm not going to try to convert the non-scale Puppeteer into a scale Pup (or Strutter). I just want to have fun building it and fly the heck out of it. I'm hoping to have the whole thing done in about a month of building.
