Looking good Brian. Even the instrument panel has an aresti diagram... Does that tube for the rudder and elevator wires shown in post #297 go all the way to the tail? What material did you use for that tube?

That is a balsa tube made from 1/32" sheet. And it runs all the way back to the tail and another runs forward to the motor box. Could use paper tubes but these were kinda fun to make.

Alright, motor mounted, throttle servo installed, kill switch and main switch in, spark box installed, satellites installed front back and both sides.
I know .. The spark box wire needs to be secured, I'm on it.
Fuel system and re3s tomorrow.
Switch is a fromeco wolverine, power box kill switch, hi tech 7985mg for throttle and secraft side mount . also installed a cricket plus capacitor thingee.

Thank goodness for long weekends.
Fuel system done but for final connections @ filler and vent out bottom of cowl, dubro 50oz , blue viton, tail dragger felt clunk, JTEC tidy clips to hold vent line, aluminum tubing and CF mounts for rail save me 1.5oz in weight and look a lot cleaner than fuel line ... I know I know.. There's that many more points for failure or leaks.. Confident in this system, its similar to what's used in full scale craft.
Tail wheel done but for the larger springs to replace the stockers. JnJ, best gear period. Made the tiller.. Well, Dave made the aluminum tiller, all mounted with bling and titanium. Painted parts are going to pro this week, the only thing being farmed out here, originally intended to give it a go myself but will save gobs of time and be much better than the rattle can I intended to use.
And a shot of the back side of panel/harness.
