Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

[dhal22]

I put the Dremel in a vise and milled the 2 side pieces.

Now to cut the window to fit. None of this is glued yes, just test fitting.

 

[dhal22]

Some quality Cub time today. Working on electrical and electronics. Just moving things around until they fit.

I wouldn't spent too much time on the electronics, my last 2 builds I had to redo everything because the planes came out tail heavy and that was using a 7.6 pound engine. The Kavan is about 1 pound lighter.

I have the really cool magnetic switch that Tony recommended working but where you install it? At a 12' wingspan or 6' on one side means a long walk around the wing if I mount the switch behind the wing...

On the Champ it is inside the door. At the field I rest the plane on the spinner, open the door and toggle the switch. That is the same way I tighten the bolts for the wings, plane is on the spinner.
