Default RE: Mini craft Edge 540

I am happy with the build, glue joints are good, and they have used good size stringers.
One thing I am not so sure about is there is no sheeting at the bottom of the fuse under neath the main wings. I am also suspect of the area just behind where the main wings attach. I have had a couple ARF's snap right here.

Anyways some 3mm ply in these two areas will not go astray. With the dl50 up front the exta 200grams it has added will not be a problem power wise. I fiqure it as good insurance.

Will beef up the fire wall with some tri stock. Support for the landing gear looks good, and not a lot I can do from the top. If it does go ( pray that it doesn't ) then it will be open from the bottom and it will be easier.
