Default RE: Kyosho Osmose 70, Sort of build thread (slow..)

I'm back... -Time for an update.

I've spent a couple of nights building now, and I'm close to completion. All that's stopping me now is the lack of 2 ball-links for my ailerons! But I'm guessing I'll get hold of these in due time.

So far, the following has been done:
- Carbon pushrod for the elevators (never liked the heavy hardwood stuff..)
- MK control horns fitted on elevators and ailerons
- Re-arrangement of servo positions (thanks to earlier posts..)
- Wheel pants assembly
- Cowling adjustments, cutouts and assembly

No major concerns or mind blowing problems. Pretty straight forward actually! Way to go Kyosho...

I'll throw in some photos that tell the tale far better than I can describe.

Things to do..:
- Finish aileron controls
- Fit an external plug for the glow plug
- Re-think and fix a less hazzle way to mount the wing bolts (it's a real pain!!)
- Check if throttle servo mount is adequate
- Add battery and reciever
- Run in engine
- Maiden...
