And you needed 600 grams to get the CG OK, that looks promising for my combination... :-) Also looking good that the weight is still around 12kg with your filled to the brim RC compartment. Maybe mine will also end up not too obese.
Really curious how yours flies! Exciting times ahead!Comment

Small update on my progress (posted already on RCU... :-) ) with some pictures.
Corrected the motormount and drilled holes for the UMS. Upper row of holes are on the upper edge of the motormount, not super but for now I'll continue. Reinforced all seams with CA and resin, guess it will hold up.
Mounted the UMS, seems to fit nicely.
Made the cabling in the wings and cobbled some connectors using LEMO 10 pole stepped contacts (thanks Ruud!). Connectors in the fuselage will have some cable slack and click into wingmounted supports.
Wings are finished except some details with the gear doors.
Next up will be balancing and placing last components in the fuselage.Attached FilesComment

Fitted the cowl and made a baffle to fit.
Made a transport stand with some foldable legs for assembly at the field (to be able to extend the lg)
Went to the Prowing last week and treated myself to a very nice Ramoser Varioprop.
More work than I thought, but we're getting there.Attached FilesComment

First time taxiing at the field. After some struggles to get everything up and running today I finally succeeded; Victory! Had to add 170 gram of lead pellets to the very rear point of the fuselage (the tip after the horizontal stabilizer. Did not weigh the final weight, but I guesstimate to be around 12.4kgs (with one battery and no tank, pump and lead it was 11.7).
Damaged one wing in the process, so still work to do.
Maybe maiden tomorrow.... Fingers crossed.Attached FilesComment
