Nick Somerville Posted August 1, 2023 Author Share Posted August 1, 2023 Here are the gun fixing details Ken. alloy tube from local DIY store cut to length and nylon bolts with heads removed epoxied in. A bit of lightweight car filler pushed in the ends and then drilled then scale caliber. Short length of next size up tube glued into the false LE and a reinforced local area behind. Blind nut set in behind. Therefore guns easily removed for transport. One further picture of wheel well area. Here you can see the forward area has the additional infill added and the rear corners were also filled providing additional support for the lower wing skins and as per the full size. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Somerville Posted August 28, 2023 Author Share Posted August 28, 2023 Finally some decent flying shots taken today by our club Chairman Chris Montagu. Engine is starting to bed in nicely now. Swinging a 26 x 14 prop topping out at a little under 6300rpm in the air and 5000rpm on the ground. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
