3D "Extreme" makeover Terryscustom edition

[-Rick-]

Terry, why do you put carbon on the TE? Stress caused by the ailerons?

Nice Vacuum Tank in the back-round!

 

[Terryscustom]

It helps keep them nice and straight over time. It also does add some strength and durability. I also will be doing some coring on these so I want to make sure the TE is going to hold up.

Got it, thanks. Your builds are great!

Had a few hours today so I got the wings almost done. Just need to trim the hinge stock, install servo boxes and drill for hinges

Rudder modified for push-pull, ailerons stripped and strengthened, re-hinged (or ready to glue anyway), push-pull servo box installed in tail, fixed landing gear (was installed backwards by other owner), replaced wheels and axles, ditched the stubby little tail-wheel, and a few other fix up things.

Nice work!

Sweet.

 

[cardenflyer]

So awesome! I want it!

 

[Terryscustom]

Thinking simple but "edgy" for the wings with something complimentary for the stabs:
White base, blue on root side, red jiggy stripe thing.
