Alright… we
decided we're going to skip sections 11-16 for now. Section 11 is
putting all the empennage parts on the tailcone… that's just a
space killer… the temptation is there cuz it would look REALLY
cool, but not practical right now. Section 12 is putting on the
fiberglass tips to all the empennage parts... No need to right now, and
since its messy work and requires a dedicated set of tools (wears them
out quickly) we're going to wait and do all the fiberglass at the same
time later. Section 13 starts the wings off by messing with the
wing spars... the 12-or-so foot long wing spars... and then sections
14, 15 & 16 just add onto the spars. After that, you start
working on all the pieces that will get attached to those big
assemblies, so instead of setting them aside, having them take up space
in the garage, we decided to do all those other parts of the wings that
we can store in the house first! That way, once we start on the
spars, we won't stop messing with them! So here we go!!!
