A view of the aft section starboard side. Only this side has been painted just to see how it looked.
A view of the aft port side. As you can see, the top panel still needs trimming. Here's a quick tip. Put rubbing alcohol and ammonia in a sprey bottle. Spray it on balsa for instant softening for shaping. Dries fast without warp.
In the paint department are the aft stabalizers painted cub yellow of course using TopFlite "LusterKote" spray paint.
The plan I'm working from. You may be able to order it from Model Airplane News but don't hold me on that.
Still got the wing and forward section to go. I've completed all the ribs but then I realised I bought the wrong size leading edge. Serves me right for not bringing a tape measure with me to the hobby store. Forward bulkheads 1 and 2 will be perticulary difficult because of the notches for the stringers in the nose. I have completed the landing gear as well.
I will probably be using all GWS equipment as recomended by the plans. These include an IPS 'A' drive with 9x7 prop, R4P receiver, 2 amp ESC, and 2 micro servos. Haven't decided on batteries yet. The model will have a 36'' span (approx 1 meter).
