Last week glassed the wing join, glued on the wing tips, sanded the tips down to near the shape they should be. Checked the wing against the fuselage and spotted a human error. The centre trailing edge does not sit on the fuselage saddle, about 6mm too high.That's what happens when you rely on the trailing edge strip. Only one thing for it - using a cutting wheel slice through the glass on the top side and down into the balsa. I can now flex the centre section a little and infill with a tiny wedge of balsa glued in. Then re-glass the area.
The rain is still streaming down the windows so what can I do now? Drilled the wings, tailplane and rudder for pivot hinges including a slight counterbore to allow for the hinge knuckle. Only an hour or so passed and rain still falling. Then decided to cover the the control surfaces, and then find the recesses for the hinges and re-open up the holes which took up the rest of the afternoon. Servo tray installed too.
Guide tubes temporarily installed but will be secured once the fuselage has been covered. I now realise I have nearly every colour possible except White Oracover.
