| The first thing that I worked on it was
reading the manual, which is very clear and
has nice pictures that you can refer to. My
only suggestion would be to have it on
electronic so you can download it and have
color pictures. |
I made the list of items that I was going to
need for the plane and started with the
engine mounting, I decided to use a 3W-100
that I already had. I built the base
according to the manual in order to present
it on the fuselage. I started measuring the
dimensions of the firewall and making a
smaller base so I can mount the engine and
move it to find the center. |
One detail that I found with this engine is
that one of the heads could not clear the
motor-box side so I decided to sand the side
until it fit; being cautious not to sand
through to the main firewall. |
