| NATOMike | Guillows Series 800 - Stearman PT-17 | Build | 15-Jun-20 12:44 |  | | Views : 3453 | | Finished covering with tissue. I discovered that the B5 pieces were so long I could not place the lower wing underneath the fuselage. Spent some time sanding it down. I am beginning to assemble the parts, but I am not sure the nose cone will go on easily to make it flyable. I can already sense the CG and the CM are way off. |

| NATOMike | Guillows Series 800 - Stearman PT-17 | Parked | 15-Jun-20 12:41 |  | | Views : 3469 | | Started lower wing, but decided not to build diherdyl or make the aileron separate. This has been a challenge so far and I am frustrated with the complexity. I overshot with a more advanced build |
