Greg Law Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Absolutely fantastic. Only one problem I see is a groundcrew person has left his blanket on the fin. Better get him to remove it before the test flight.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better get him to remove it before the test flight.... Ha ha, There was a more fundamental problem that I only noticed this morning - I'd glued the gear doors on in the wrong position. They were protruding forward of the gear box section when they should of protruded rear wards. I've sorted that now...doh! 3 hours ago, stevehnz said: Blooming marvellous Neil, you should be very proud of this effort. Steve. Thanks Steve, yes, I'm really pleased with how it's turned out. There's lots of bits that I'm not happy with but considering the base I was working with, I never thought it would look this good overall Just the mid upper and ADF loop housing to do now and it's done 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
