Well, it is taking a while alright! :)
It is a punishment alright (I wish this was the school punishment! That would have been a cool teacher :) "500 rivets on my plane because you are noisy, that will calm you down!" >:D
In this case anyway, you can't really do it without those rivets :'( It does look cool :) Fuselage sheeting started, maybe some photos tonight, but we are getting close to the finish line!
Just in time for the next one :-[
Fred:
Fuselage!!
Long and painful, so all is going according to plan :)
Fred:
Today, fuselage!
I made an executive decision, and decided to glue the front canopy, and leave the battery inaccessible, but I could not bear the look of the seam on the fuselage!
CofG done before gluing it. I had to put a 5cells 4200 and a bit of lead to achieve a CG at 90mm from le.
Manual says 65mm, but that one looks more sensible!
Anyway, 2 hours of “fun” later, had my fuselage done.
Really pleased with the front part, I really thought I was going to struggle, but no, just time consuming!
Fred:
Billions of rivets later, and stickers, I totally deserve that beer!!
Love that thing!! :)
Mind you, not finished yet, but getting real close now :)
A good day!
