Default aresti 40

I'll use the SIG composite engine mount. (much lighter and it's not a dang clamp mount) The holes ALMOST line right up. We're talking about maybe 1/8 of an inch. I think if I get all four screws started and distribute that 1/8 to 1/16 on both sides (top and bottom) I may be able to avoid having to drill out the holes. The power is definitely going to be a saito .72. For a 40 size plane there's no better engine!

Has anyone noticed any missing parts? I'm very meticulous when I build so I'm 100% sure I didn't lose them. My Aresti came without a wing bolt and was short on hinges. Also, the manual says to trim out the canopy with trim tape... Is that supposed to be supplied or not?
