AMR Giant Stick - Final Assembly and Covering

Well it's all complete now. The wing construction and sheeting was performed without any hassells. I've attached the stab and fin and covered them. One point to note here there aren't any holes in the last former to allow the servo wires for the elevator to come through. Make sure you drill some BEFORE you attach the top fuse sheeting and fin. Whilst you are doing that make sure that you have glued the servo doublers in place as well.

Covering has been pretty straight forward, I find I need to cover a few bits and fail a few times before I get my "covering mojo" flowing. Once that's happening covering the rest is no drama at all.

Wings are covered, fin and stab are covered, rudder and elevators have been hinged.

I've started working on the pull-pull control wires for the rudder. I ran out of hinges for the flaps/ailerons as they didn't include enough in the kit!! DOH!!!

All the control horn hardware is pretty decent quality, but I felt that some washers should've been included to spread the load evenly from the control horns. Also, no pull-pull hardware is included so you have to find your own which was a pain as well. No matter.

In other news, my DLE-55 has arrived, ready for insertion.
