Quite pleased with the result. I mask off the area and covered the white areas with flat black.

And back to painting, had to mix 20 grams, will use about 10, most will end up on the air! I just slide two contractor bags over the fuselage like a condom!!!

Installed the radio and associated wiring, takes a little more time with the fabric on but it is done now. Then focused on finishing the back of the plane before installing the main gear, it is a lot easier rolling the plane around on the horses without the gear on. Lost one of the clevis pins for the flying wires, had to make a new one, rather small, 2mm in diameter with 1mm cotter pin hole. Hope to have it sitting on gear tonight. Ordered the seats below from I Fly Talies, looks a lot easier than making my own, $30 plus shipping.

Nice work it is really starting to take shape. Not much more to be done.
When you get that far can you move the elevator up and down and show how the trim tab works
