What to do best if it’s raining and you can’t do anything in the garden? Correct! Working on my model plane!
Today’s mission was it to get the wings more or less done, i.e., working on the ailerons. Can’t say that I’m a particular fast model maker, but it’s fun nonetheless. Turns out that my servos are a bit taller than the ones used for the instructions for the plane. Had to dig out a lot more foam from the fuselage to get the aileron servo, which is mounted below the wing inside the fuselage, fitted nicely. But in the end, all seems to work nicely! 🙂

PS
From the looks of it, we’ll have a wet summer this year. Hopefully, I get a chance to test-fly my plane…
