The main components of the model where
assembled including the winglets before filling seems,
cleaning and then a coat of matt light grey.
This picture shows the fairings I made
up using light gauge plasticard to cover over the protruding
main gear. This is to improve the sight line during
flight and isnt intended to make the model look better
whilst static.
I noticed that a fellow Runryder member
had built the same model and found a much better solution
to the main gear problem using gears. I am not confident
I could scratch build something that elaborate though.
The battery was painted matt black to
further hide it, the doors will be left in the open
position to aid cooling.
The models engines where trimmed around
the Himax motor leaving space for cooling, I dont intend
to fly the model for more than a couple of minutes so
this should not be an issue.
