Default RE: CAP or Extra?



Alright, so it's report time, a few small things were changed or added to aid in building and durability, so here we go, I added a piece of balsa to the bottom under the belly pan plate, the one I had was curved from the factory and needed support, plus it's a long gap between the reinforcement and the front so it all leveled out by adding this small piece of scrap balsa. I also cut a new forward fuse bottom out of birtch ply to replace the lite ply, predrill the holes using the old part as a template, just clamp them together and drill through the two with a 1/8" drill bit. Glue this in place and make sure the gap on the wing is good and even, after the epoxy cures, sand it all flush and your ready to add the side balsa sheeting. I also added a small section of servo wire tube to the bolt for the wing, it gives it a finished look and keeps the bolt from falling inbetween the wing and the belly pan section, Hope these pic's help. Any questions so far?</p>
