Well not done last night but done this morning after work. Picked this up from a buddy for cheap. Gonna get into FPV with it.

Worked on my Grasshopper some more today. Had my first real challenge of the build so far. Landing gear had to be hand bent out of wire. Then tied together with spiderwire. Also had to hand shape the false spars on the top front of the cabin. Took my time and I think both came out well enough.

Looks right to me. Great job.

I put those sanding blocks to use today. They work great.

Worked on my Grasshopper this weekend. Got all my tail feathers built and got started on the wing. I'll try and get some pics tomorrow. Didn't have my iPad out in the shop today and I was to lazy to go get it.

Moving right along on the Grasshopper. Was going fairly quick and easy till I got to the wing. Actually have to stop and think about it! I'm sure the fact that its National Beer Day isn't much help. Although a little better instructions and better labeling of parts would help a bit. Here's a couple pics of the progress thus far.
