Scale F7F Tigercat 1/4 scale

This how I decided to do the aileron control for the tigercat, unfortunately the pushrod will be slightly visible.

In the mean time , I will pursue the bevel gear system if only for my own curiosity.

On this drawing you will notice I will still use a carbon fiber torque tube running in aluminum bushing with little cross section and it will be greased using vasoline

Hi everyone, I decided I will no longer post the construction of the Tiger cat here , the interest is fading which is understandable , but if some of you would like to follow, you can join "Scale Everything airplane" on Facebook.

Some of the lack of interest may be declining membership here. So many of the good guys aren't here these days.
 
I'm trying something I have never tried before, cover the wings and fuselage with aluminum , What I am using is 0.011 inch, , I ordered some tiny rivets not for structural but for looks only, you can also see I tested the clear gorilla polyurethane glue, the one that doesn't expand, and I can tell you it works perfectly,
