chadders Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 Small update on my progress. The fuselage halves are now securly bonded and sanding and reprofiling continues. However during this I noticed that the vertical tail wasn't that vertical!! When viewed from the front it was tilted to one side by a country mile. Due to the fact that I was going to have to reshape the undersize tail anyway, I decided just to remove it completely, do all the necessary work and then refit correctly later. Another pita that I didn't want, but to be expected really. More later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev1n Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 you still havent said where you are going to put it when it's done...... I would absolutely LOVE to have a go at one of these....one day....maybe....tho' I have no idea at all where I would put it; I guess it would have to hang from the ceiling or something You said you were going to open up the gear bay doors; still going to? so will this be inflight or sitting on ther ground? (and I couldnt do one of these without adding all kinds of extra to it.....but thats just me ) look forward to seeing it progress - good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
