Wheel pants

With all the holes in correct place, the pants were painted. They probably need another coat.

Wheel pants

Finished the wheel pants. Lots of adjustments needed. The screw on the outer side is a bit tricky. That single screw is what angles the pants so they stay parallel with the wheels in two planes (roll and yaw). I got the "roll" correct, but the yaw still need some adjustment. I have to make another hole and fill up the first one.

They will be painted gray.

Wheel pants

Did the cut out on the wheel pants. Much more than is indicated on the drawing needs to be cut out to make them fit. Then I put some gelcoat putty on the seams.

The Aveo Vega also arrived. It's a landing/taxi light, LED and tiny. It will be mounted beneath the wing.
