Fred:
Hey Joe,

Any progress on the U2 ?

Fred

joe:
managed to get a bit of work done Fred.will do a little more today and post pics later on
 :D

joe:
OK! here we go.starting to get somewhere now.still a good bit of work to do though.
elevator/stab are pretty much ready to cover,just a quick once over with filler to fill any joins and the like and a final sand.
rudder/fin nearly there too.will probably glass poly-c the fin and rudder and finish the same as the fuselage.
wings need a bit of work where they meet the fuse.balsa sanding and some filler required here.leading edges need to be sanded and wing tips added.
fuse needs a good going over with filler and then sanded and then probably filled again and sanded.......... fuse needs work! will test fly first!
one big mistake so far.due to a f**k up installing the wing joining rod.the wings aren't as sweeped back as they should be.apart from a more forward c of g i'm hoping this won't effect flight too much :?

some pics then.probably looks better in the pics than in the flesh.
fairly happy for first build.looks like a U2r anyway! :D





Fred:
