I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Too bad I did not get any red or black Solite, I will have to paint those areas. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 10-Oct-08 03:56 Views : 755 Covering the elevator and horizontal stabilizer adds 0.9 grams. It is difficult to extrapolate that weight to the entire plane to guess the AUW, but I am encouraged by how light the covering is. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 10-Oct-08 00:41 Views : 757 Covering the rudder and vertical stabilizer adds a paltry 0.4 grams. Solite is just the ticket for a small plane like this and I'm glad James suggested I use it. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 09-Oct-08 20:20 Views : 1207 Solid wing tips and first pass at sanding everywhere. Weight of everything minus covering is now 8.32oz (236 grams), AUW might end up pretty close to 9oz. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 07-Oct-08 15:09 Views : 867 I thought I would upload a picture of our club's pylon racers with the tail wheel attached to the rudder as Poppy described in the previous picture. Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 06-Oct-08 02:21 Views : 984 The weight of the fuselage is 5.5 oz with all electronics. I estimate the weight before covering to be around 8 oz. I wanted a AUW of 10oz (~70 watts/lb) but had hoped to get 7-8oz. Unless I do some serious wood removal I'll be closer to 10oz AUW. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Flying 06-Oct-08 02:14 Views : 843 I went with the pull-pull setup to the tail wheel and a push rod to the rudder and elevator. Most of this gets covered as is and will require cutting into the covering if a repair or adjustment is needed. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 04-Oct-08 17:23 Views : 763 I haven't quite figured out yet how to best link up the rear wheel as the little arm for it moves not just in the X-Y plane but also a little in the Z plane. My best ideas so far are to either use an elastic material or a pull-pull. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 04-Oct-08 17:20 Views : 808 The motor is mounted and stringers are starting to go on. If you look close you can see push rods for the rudder and elevator. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 26-Sep-08 16:37 Views : 824 I finally got around to fixing the tail wheel. I used 1/32" plywood for the support which will hopefully be strong enough without adding too much weight. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 09-Sep-08 15:15 Views : 753 Sometimes I forget that I work a 3 minute walk from a 6 story library with 1.4 million books that will loan them to me for 3 months. No need to mail me the book now DD, I can read this copy and don't have to return it till December 8th.
