Hi there!
You're all too kind, and it's far from finished!
I'll be satisfied when it's finished! For now, there's still a long way to go!
Well, after several hours of fumbling, grumbling, breaking, unsticking, redoing etc, I think this should do it.
It's almost too rigid. I don't know how else to explain it. I'm hoping that the interplane rigging will prevent some of the struts from detaching under tension.
The two posterior cabane masts were a hair too long, and impossible to get them off the fuselage. I had to cut half a millimeter off their wing tips with pliers, without being able to attach them before the other struts. In short, I had a hard time...
I'll be able to move on to the rigging soon! This is an important stage in the assembly. The one that had me shaking in anticipation with this old Bluemax kit. Probably my most difficult assembly to date.
See you soon!
Arnaud
