    IMAC Double Build, Carden Pro 124" Extra 300 40%

    I'm not sure why you added the JR plugs? Two additional points of high resistance and possible failure. I would make the servo leads long enough to solder the MX plug as well the wires in the fuselage that go to the power box.

    So you are using Stitts Polytac with Dacron?

    IMAC Double Build, Carden Pro 124" Extra 300 40%

    Wouldn't this be nice to know before you covered it? I have moved the wing to get planes to balance rather than add weight, in my case it was nose heavy.

    That U=Pol looks like neat stuff, will give it a try on my current build.

    That's a very nice drill jig. I have made similar jigs using aluminum flat bar and Robart drill bushing. I like the clear bar.

    IMAC Double Build, Carden Pro 124" Extra 300 40%

    I believe that the inboard section is less effective generating rotational force since it is closer to the center of rotation therefore more deflection is needed for a strip aileron which generates additional drag.

    Is that an eight foot straight edge on the floor, where did you find it?

    If you head temps are 280, those exhaust pipes are much higher. I'd move the servo location and send that back for a check up.

    Sport Building table/board

    I'm using two 36" wide solid wood doors, 3' x13'. The surface is leveled on a steel frame bolted to the basement floor. It might not be perfect but it is surly close enough. The attached photo is an eight foot one piece wing in the vacuum bag with room to spare.

    I like Titebond II because it is water resistant. Since I cut my own cores and they are always not as perfect as CNC cut cores, I have had trouble when the sheets were taped only and not glued in the area where the wire travels slowly near the wing tips. So I always glue them.

    Got it. The 40% looks a lot like a set of 33% Wayne Urley plans that I have.
