SteveM Dumas Kit #1815,DeHavilland DH89 Dragon Rapide Build 09-Feb-11 21:42 Views : 912 Of course the directions tell you to route the wire through a non-existing hole so you have to cut your own. SteveM Dumas Kit #1815,DeHavilland DH89 Dragon Rapide Build 09-Feb-11 21:40 Views : 892 Somehow I managed to get this far in the build without thinking about having to extend the motor wires and making a "Y" cable for them. I also need to figure out which motor rotates which way. SteveM Dumas Kit #1815,DeHavilland DH89 Dragon Rapide Build 05-Feb-11 13:32 Views : 971 The HS-55 servos fit well enough, but I had to do some cutting to allow th servo wires and Dubro E/Z connector to clear. The radio is essential to exercise the full range of motion.

SteveM Dumas Kit #1815,DeHavilland DH89 Dragon Rapide Build 31-Jan-11 22:00 Views : 855 Detail view showing the alignment of parts FW and FWST. Mine had some slop in the fit and the plans made it look like the tops are flush, but you want to make the bottom edges flush instead. SteveM Dumas Kit #1815,DeHavilland DH89 Dragon Rapide Build 30-Jan-11 00:24 Views : 974 Both motor mounts are finished. I went with PVA glue again for strength and to have time to make sure all was aligned before the glue set. SteveM Dumas Kit #1815,DeHavilland DH89 Dragon Rapide Build 21-Jul-10 19:00 Views : 1019 Fuselage is starting to come together. Bending the curves for the nose was a little tricky, but I brushed on water and let it soak and added a little more bend each day I worked on it till it was fully curved. Lots of butt joints, I hope they hold up. SteveM Dumas Kit #1815,DeHavilland DH89 Dragon Rapide Build 10-Jul-10 00:55 Views : 999 The sides are complete, starting now on the bottom and top.
