A little update. Sick kid today and I wasn't feeling the best so I stayed home. Worked on the wings today. They are an easy build. I just need to do some shaping on the ends and they will be finished. I had to put them on to see what it looks like. I like it.

That's no joke, you are one fast builder. You could build a kit and get it flying faster than I could buy a used one all set up, minus receiver.

I have been working on it for about 2 weeks now. I was happy with how quickly and easily the wings built, and with being home all day, I was able to get a lot done. Home again today, so I will finish up some little things that need to be taken care of.

I didn't get a lot accomplished yesterday, but I did a few things. I made the gas tank with a 12oz bottle. I finished the dash, and sheeted the front.

Looks good. I have one of them "sanding helpers" also. "Dad, what can I sand?" is the first question she asks when she comes out to the garage. Makes me smile.

Looks a lot better now that I have the sheeting on. I hope I remembered everything under there.

smart girl you got der! i bet she will be showing YOU how to "build it" in a few years. Not to mention, "Fly it" too.

Keep up the good work. Can you add a poll to this thread for a color scheme? if you go yellow, ill be dissappointed. DONT LET THAT DETER YOU THOUGH!

i think you should cover it like Hazel Sig's!

I don't want to disappoint you, but yellow it is. I already have the covering. It is 21st century fabric if that makes it any better.
