ORIGINAL: cgroen

Got the cockpits adjusted so they fit.
I will make the front one ''semi permanent'', and the aft will be removed for filling fuel/air and charging.
I removed the two pins in the canopy, they were HUGE, and they got in the way for the front tub, I made two new pins at the edge of the canopy instead.
Just need to make a cover for the front, the one that follows the kit is way too short, so will make a new one of some wood instead....

BTW, I removed the brace in the front of the canopy, I added some epoxy around the inside of the curve in the front to make it more stiff.
I also removed some of the brace in the back, it is very wide from the factory, no need for that (and it looks ugly )
And no, it is not cyano fog or epoxy fingers, it's just dust on the glass

If you go back to page 5 half way down you will see what I have done
