It's looking great!

That is a good looking beer in the photo as well.

Nice! What to the plans say to use for a bungee in the LG?

I like 1/8" shock cord (para cord). It lasts aloooooot longer than rubber bands.

The plans say rubber bands. Thanks for the tip on the para cord. Might give that a try.

The DA50 looks right at home.

Moving right along.

Nothing picture worthy tonight. But I did make a little progress.

Drilled a couple holes in the firewall for the throttle linkage and pickup sensor. Drilled a hole in the belly for the plug wire. And added some reinforcements to the landing gear plate and also the wing saddle area.

Up next will be mounts for the tank, ignition and throttle servo. Stay tuned!

Take your time and enjoy it. Building a kit takes time to do it nicely. I am building Sportster and it is taking a lot longer than I thought it would. It is coming along nicely.

You will need to do something to stop the fuel spitting into fuselage. Jetpainter gave a few good ideas how to do this.
