BradG Posted November 21, 2016 Author Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) Fuselage is now drying. Tail wheel is installed, I'll squirt some green on it later. Edited August 7, 2017 by BradG Shaka HI, mozart, Azgaron and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill_S Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Looks good, Brad. I can't wait til I get to that point on mine! BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 (edited) With training cancelled due to rain I might as well do some modelling. Good news is I got the cockpit and the instrument panel in with no serious issues, sanded down the joins which look ok. Bad news is the wing center section fit is, not great. I haven't committed glue yet, just test fitting to see if I can minimize those gaps.

Shaka HI Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Keep going Brad...those little gaps are nuthing! BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cees Broere Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Make sure the centresection is horizontal, if you tape the ends the gaps will be much less. On mine the fit was too tight and I had to sand the fuselage attachment surface a bit. BradG and Shaka HI 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 That looks do-able Brad. Max Shaka HI and BradG 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_S Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 (edited) Cement the wing tops to the fuselage first, Brad. The fit will be MUCH better! Edited November 22, 2016 by Bill_S Shaka HI, Shawn M, BradG and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 Yep, I probably should have done that Bill. Too late now though. Shaka HI and Bill_S 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradG Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) Ok, tail is on, but I haven't cleaned up the joints yet. Edited August 7, 2017 by BradG Azgaron, Bill_S, R Palimaka and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_S Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I'm really surprised at the fit at the belly, Brad; mine is nothing like that. Do you intend to do a sand and rescribe job? Shaka HI, BradG and sandokan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
