Pre Joining Work

Pre joining work is completed on the tailplane, they would have gone together today but frustratingly I have ran out of M3 captive nuts.......AAAHHHHH!

Not all bad news, this small set back has given me the head start on the pre joining work of the wings, all the shear webs are ready and lined up with the new joiner boxes. My new servos arrived Saturday morning courtesy of Phoenix models, I only ordered them at 4pm on Friday, fantastic service and at only £32.50 each this is a saving of about £5 against other suppliers, they are also getting a stock of Schulze receivers so this will be a one stop shop for me!

The servos are being moulded into the wing to increase the aerodynamic efficiency of the bottom wing surface as there will be no taped hatch. This will also decrease the amount of finishing work when the model is de-mouded, good news! We will eventually go the RDS route but for now we just want to get some models together for the 2010 season.

Anyway......I will order the M3 captive nuts tomorrow and will update soon.

Take take for now, Harry.
