Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

[dhal22]

Yes, don't know why because either would work. Mostly just need to keep this project moving along. Pick an engine (1st world problem........) and get going.

Rough rough draft on elevator/ aileron stick boot (?). Might be getting too deep into cabin detail, could be a deep rabbit hole I think. At some point this thing needs to fly.

Way too big (troublesome) of a boot. Eliminated the scale 2 piece design and trying something close in a 1 piece design.

Amazing. Called Sherline today to order some mill parts (bent y axis lead screw, misc) and ended up talking in depth with tech support person about mill upgrades. Turns out he is building a Nelitz Cub as well and we ended up talking for over an hour. I have a new friend!!!

Small world!!

Yep, but we need a lot more builders in the next gen!

I am lucky in my club. We have four builders in it, many clubs have none.

Got a few small things done today. I found out 00-90 screws and bolts are an absolute pain to order. I want Phillips head, hex head, hex nuts and at least 2 lengths. No one has everything.

Door hinge work here.

If you think ordering is tuff, wait until you start screwing them together!

I was wondering about that. I have the little 00-90 wrench/nut driver in several of my shopping carts. Nobody can fill the complete order at the moment. Still looking around.
