\"P1150939\"<\/a><\/p>\n

April 25 2014<\/p>\n

Update, plane is finished, Total build time was 59 hrs. Maiden tomorrow?<\/p>\n

Hopefully, more pictures to follow then<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here’s the start as the fuselage comes together<\/p>\n

orange coming later<\/p>\n

\"20140329_173438\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Right wing panel, just collecting the parts at this point. Later I’ll get the lower spars in place and then the build will really move along<\/p>\n

\"20140326_175044\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Right wing panel, I like to mark the spars both panels the same with the outer rib location. Then I work my way towards the root with the shear webs.<\/p>\n

If all the shear webs are the same width, then voila a nice panel which will match the other side\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"20140330_104329\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Shaping up to be a nice wing<\/p>\n

\"20140401_090144\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It better be straight, easy on a board, now what about with the polyhedral!<\/p>\n

\"20140401_090152\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Diagonal braces, once I’m setup a cut a few of these .<\/p>\n

The Elio needs 30, and there’s enough in the pile for at least another wing<\/p>\n

\"20140401_094647\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Left outer panel, diagonal braces 3\/32 x 3\/16 high<\/p>\n

Upper spar in place as well as the leading edge, it will be off the board next so I can add the tip block<\/p>\n

\"20140401_111718\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Right wing, diagonal braces in place<\/p>\n

\"20140401_122231\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"20140404_053352\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Left wing panel<\/p>\n

\"20140404_053408\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Underside of spoiler servo access hatch. A few pieces get added<\/p>\n

\"20140405_134829\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Adding the top rear sheeting. This tends to get a little tine consuming as at this point the pieces have to fit between the LE sheeting and the trailing edge<\/p>\n

\"20140405_143139\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and another all pinned down<\/p>\n

\"20140405_150423\"<\/a><\/p>\n
