Default RE: Spot On 50 Build log.

The weather here in Ontario has somehow improved (in March???) and we spent the last few days flying our small elecrtics so I have'nt gotten alot done. However, I did get the DEPS completed. It's very smooth and the elevator halves are rock solid. The control horn screw positions were perfectly marked and the kit comes with two different length screws for the ailerons and elevator....of course I didnt realise that until after I had the first two installed.

The tank installation is done and the cowl back in place. I used a foam block above the tank for a tight fit and sealed the covering edges at the firewall with epoxy. The firewall is already fuel proofed.

Added a little a neat needle-valve extension.

I'm going to start the radio installation and hope that we get the landing gear soon.
