Re: 42% Dalton 260
Got the hard points glued in on the stabs and the little plastic piece mounted. Started building the hatch have the stringers glued on. Also working on a Monocoupe for a friend. Split the day working on both. I will post pics tomorrow.

Re: 42% Dalton 260
Sheeted the hatch tonight and got the stabs set last night. I want to think Rob for the tip on the filler it works great. Try to finish the hatch and cut the stabs apart tomorrow.
I will post pics tomorrow. Tim

Re: 42% Dalton 260

Re: 42% Dalton 260
I say it depends on how you're getting it to the field. If it's in the back of a truck or SUV, go with the removable rudder. If you have a trailer and it's big enough, you can still do a removable rudder but leave it permanent until you need to take it off.

Re: 42% Dalton 260
Hey Guy's
Rudder is glued on and mounted the cowl tonight. Starting to look like a airplane just need to start on the wings. I am trying to get alot of the fuse done before starting on the wings. After seeing the coring job that Rob and Matt do I wish they lived closer I would take the wings to them. Great Job Guy's awesome build forums. Thanks for all the information you provide. Tim |
