Stephen Grigg Posted December 25, 2011 Author Share Posted December 25, 2011 Next 2 jobs were the engine mounts and tank.You remove a plate at the bottom of the fuselage held in by 2 screws.Then fit a tank support onto the inside bulkhead.Slide the tank in,hold it in place with a rubber band.Glue another support at the back of the tank.Engine mounts just screw into place,the captive nuts are already there. Next job is the under carriage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
