NATOMike | Guillows Series 800 - Stearman PT-17 | Build | 21-Jun-20 10:29 | | Views : 962 | Got both outer struts on. With the one of the left I pieced together the struts properly. The ones of the right side (as seen from the front) are backwards. It was not obvious from the start, but once I saw the proper way it made sense. |
NATOMike | Guillows Series 800 - Stearman PT-17 | Parked | 21-Jun-20 10:27 | | Views : 799 | Attached the upper wing by starting with the inner struts, little hard without "slots " for the rear struts |

NATOMike | Guillows Series 800 - Stearman PT-17 | Build | 15-Jun-20 12:44 | | Views : 744 | Finished covering with tissue. I discovered that the B5 pieces were so long I could not place the lower wing underneath the fuselage. Spent some time sanding it down. I am beginning to assemble the parts, but I am not sure the nose cone will go on easily to make it flyable. I can already sense the CG and the CM are way off. |
NATOMike | Guillows Series 800 - Stearman PT-17 | Parked | 15-Jun-20 12:42 | | Views : 727 | The lower wing was a serious challenge and I avoided making any control surface moveable. I originally wanted to make a flyable model, but not sure that will happen. |
