Still haven't made any progress, but I was working on something else fun to assemble:

Although that green machine is just a little machine I built for my daughter. My box is a bit more powerful.

Gotta find some time to get this thing done. I have a little incentive right now because @Spats and @Xpress are talking about coming to fly with me on Saturday.

I did get out for a few minutes of garage dink'n yesterday. I started hinging the ailerons. Not wanting to take any more chances on how ARF hinges are going to hold up, I went ahead and added an extra hinge to each end and used Robart hinges instead of the included hinges. I hung the aileron with some tape this time so that the glue could puddle around the hinge internally, but I usually never bother with that as with ZAP epoxy I've never had a hinge come loose.

I was thinking about coming up, but then this happened.

So I am not so certain about it now since I gotta buy new parts...

UNLESS someone had a 110" EF Yak 54 I could tug the sticks on..........
