    Here are some detail pictures from my aileron servo mount. The black flat heads are 6/32’s with blind nuts on the box. The wood screws are mainly to keep the plate from flexing under high loads.

    Very close now, I still need to clear coat the cowl and wheel pants. I do need to add some type of stripes to the fuses sides.

    They are Carbon fiber. I got them on FG but J Tec makes them. Jerry Hailey and Kevin Young helped me with the servo bay doors.

    Well I got some more work over the weekend. worked on the stabs servo installation. Turned out just as I planed, Lucky I guess. I have a one inch arm and I'm able to get over 20 degrees on throw, which is plenty for IMAC flying.

    WOOOOOHOOOOO!!!!! Almost done with covering, rudder is left but, I’m waiting on the SWB control horn for the rudder. The first two pictures show before and after I sprayed the hairspray on the fuse. I allowed it to dry overnight. I did the final sanding with 400, then blew it off AND...

    Thank you guys, Worked on the fuselage last night, but I forgot my camera at home, final sanding today and its on to covering. The fuse should go fast. I'm not sure what I will do on it, I do know the turtle deck hatch and top of the cowl will be orange white on the sides and bottom and from...

    OK, so now on to laying down some covering. I start out by doing the end caps first, I give myself about a 1/8th inch overlap so that I have something to attached the covering and pull on it from the opposite side. Oh!! Right before I put the piece over the wing I again clean it with a rag...

    JK, Here is what I've been using for Prep work. That red sponge you see is from one of those erase all cleaning white pads, I pulled off the pad. I use a small amount of shoe goop for the 400 grit sand paper to stick to it. Works great for the final sanding.
