Did a bit of sheeting. I'm trying to figure out servo placement before I go to far. I'd like to do pull /pull on the elevator and rudder. Think I need to mount the two elevator servos vertically. I need to make the servo tray removable to service the tank and throttle servo if need be.

Got the elevator hinged and the fuel tank figured out. The red thing is quick fire fuel filter. Pretty cool holds a 1/2 once of fuel and makes priming easier. Also eliminates the need for a third line to fill. Now I've got to build 4 wing panels.
Last wing panel finished. It's back to my part time job at the hobby shop today. We're opening to walk in traffic with restrictions. Things will slowdown on the build. I have a bunch of sanding prep to do before covering.
Really nice work, Mike. Glad your hobby shop is opening back up. That's a good sign.
Texas has a good plan. Here in El Paso we're still having some issues. I think we can get through this if people are smart about it. My wife will be free of me for a few hours while I'm working , I'm sure she could use the break. I'm happy to get back to work in my "retirement" gig at the shop.
Let's hope we're seeing that light at the end of the tunnel.
So there I was being all smart and stuff about the radio install and how to get to the tank and throttle servo if need be. It was a epic fail. I had to make the servo tray removable and relocate things. I'm pretty much done with the fuse so final sanding and covering are next. I still need to build the center sections of the wings.

Corona Build. Spent some time installing all the hard points in the wings and building the servo mounts for the ailerons. Finished the second center section and started what I hate most painting pilots. Needs a bunch of shading but it's a start. I have zero talent when it comes to painting pilots.
