It's finally time for some progress shots.

I added the battery tray and some balsa reinforcements for the main gear support. There's enough room in the front compartment even for 12s 5000 mAh batteries and i attached a few images showing the inside of the front section. I'm not sure how many G's our pattern models are pulling, but at -10g there will be almost 15 Kg pulling the battery tray, so i added lots of balsa reinforcements underneath.

I decided to use Radiosouth 1/4 scale CA hinges and they arrived a few days ago, so i took a couple of evenings to finish the rudder. I also attached a picture showing the new canopy shape. It's a little less tall and more integrated into the shape of the fuselage.
