Interesting flap attachment.

Looks good, Brad.

That is my trick for attaching the flap for painting (so the paint matches) without getting the blank spots on the fusealge at the flap location.

I use 1/32 ply hinges. Saves a lot of time and drops the need for a another paint buck.

Brad,

That's an interesting idea. I have a huge stack of paint frames for various control surfaces, parts and such. Seems I have to modify one or more for every ship.

Hadn't thought of using the main airframe as it's own buck.

Beautiful work Brad. Even though you have been "somewhat harsh with me", I still admire your work. To make amends, I will try to PDF my Tournament of Champions, Saito 91 powered Extra 330.
