Good luck mate! I'm midway through and having a nightmare with the engine fit.

Chris Delahorne
I must be lucky. My engine went in sweet as a nut...........
Going to need a load of filler in other areas tho...........

Adam Carter
Really? I've almost given up with it now tbh but I will finish it! Any other issues. Any pics of how the engine fitted to help me?

Chris Delahorne
Errm, I just fitted the engine to the starboard half of the fuselage, gluing it in place. Then glued the port fuselage half into place. Flexed the port half a little to get a millimetre's clearance. Job done mate...........

Last night I had a fresh look and realise the whole tail end of the starboard fuselage is warped, hot water bath and sorted. All it needed was a fresh and less stressed eye! Yours is looking great btw
