As you see I chose not to use the wheel pants during the first flights of the Gilmore.
If the maiden is successful, I may think of you to properly install them...(oh yes, it needs a lot of time and thinking)

The assembly continues with the installation of a "".
I usually prefer the Hobbico Voltwatch but at 1/3rd of the price I bought

I always throw away the supplied fuel tank and use a more "well-known" one.
I wish it handles the pressure generated by the YS,though ... :P
