This is the red tissue that came with the kit. I brushed the glue onto the frame, sanded it lightly, let it dry, then applied another coat of glue and immediately put the tissue on the wet glue. |

CD-ROM motor now mounted, upper and lower wing leading edges sanded. AUW currently coming out as 4.4oz. Seems to balance with the battery behind the firewall, and the servos in the cockpit. |

Placed together because I'm impatient to see how it's going to look! And also because I needed a 3D model to try and work out how to hook up the ailerons, rudder and elevator. |
