Nose Gear Retraction Mechanism Part 3

I finished the crank, just need to drill the hole through the dash and hook it up completely. Left is 2 rivets. I got to apply my first epoxy to the plane by floxing the Strut Cover in place. Also got to working on the practice wing from the manual (Yes, some people actually try out the practice projects first). The hot-wire cutting worked very well for us with our experience making RC combat plane wings. I can't wait to finish the nose gear retraction system so I can crank the nose up and down so I feel like something was actually accomplished.
