I didn't have one big enough. The holes are quite large in diameter (over 2 inches). Also the sanding drums leave the foam nice and smooth

Now you tell me. Next you'll say you had tons of monokote covering laying around and a professional coverer who would have done the plane for free.

I ordered up one of those cool alum servo mounts for my throttle from Aztech Aeromodels so I could mount the servo under the motorbox. Could I have made something like this out of wood, sure but its bling after all.

Nope. Work has been kicking my butt with a Change of Command Ceremony that another guy was supposed to do and didn't so they put it in my lap a week and half ago (Your supposed to set it up 6 weeks out). The Ceremony is Wed so I'm putting in extra time at work.

Also I did alot of work on the RV this last week.

-Installed a real entertainment center on the outside
-Installed an inverter
-Installed Satellite TV wiring
-Installed Air Vent covers on the roof

Then I worked on the Cub a bunch. It only needs

-ignition mounted
-smoke pump mounted
-fuel/smoke lines run
-Touch up on the cowl
-balance and throws set
-Pilot installed

My plan was to finish the cub if I can get off work enough to do so along with the Hobby Lobby Foamy.

Well the P-47 kicked my butt. I finally got it all done for the Warbird event this weekend. Don't think I forgot about the Ultimate though. As soon as I get back from the warbird event I get straight back to finishing this bird.

I'm back and today I'm going to work on the lonely Elevator. Most likely will cutout the holes on the cowl as well for cooling and mufflers. If I have time I'll finish up the Rudder also.
