Default RE: FlyingStyroKit P-40N

I did get quite abit done before my son's arrival, so I'll post as I can what I've got.

I first installed the horizontal stabilizer. I used 6 min epoxy after alittle carving of the fillets in this area to make for a better fit. Not much to clean up though, they really do alot for you in the factory.

I poked a hole for the rudder pushrod though fuse and ran some scrap 1/16th" along the inside of fuse to stiffen both the pushrod and the fuse up abit. You can see the piece of foam that originally was used here. I'll also do the same for the elevator. I've found that this really stiffens up the controls and takes all the flex out.
