Default RE: Concept Fleet Biplane

Hi Gang:
I'm in the final stages of construction on my 1/4 Fleet and the cabanes are giving me fits. [sm=drowning.gif] I have the front made as in the plans but when I get the rear one adjusted as stated in the instructions the diagonal brace is no where near fitting it seems like its to long. Also these wires seem somewhat soft and I'm unsure of their ability to maintain if and when I do get the setup correct. Any comments would be helpful.[sm=confused.gif]
I'm doing mine as an IAR F-10G that was a license built fleet used as a trainer by the Romanian air force in WWII. The only difference is in the fin / rudder shape and the fact that they used an inverted Gypsy Moth engine so the cowl is longer and slicker.
