Default RE: Neptuno 170

Wiring are pretty much done. Nothing really tough, just needed to plan ahead of time on placement of each wire. I used to install the rx on/ off switch on the outside of the fuselage. However, ever since I accidentally turn the sliding switch on during transportation a few years ago, I have since placed the switch inside the fuse with an IM switch extension.

Next step is the tank installation. For some reason, Jet Legend only installed two sets of velcro strips for securing the tank, but decided not to have any catch/ blocking in front of the tank to prevent it from sliding forward. Originally, I was thinking of either gluing two pieces of velcro – male & female – on the bottom of the tank. Or, gluing a piece of light ply in front of the tank to prevent it from sliding. However, my buddy – Don Atwood – custom designed a piece of wood block for me on his home made CNC machine which enables me to have a professionally look installation. Thanks again Don.
