I cut the bevels for the aileron using the table saw and installed those.
Then put the contol horns on elevators and rudder. I have tried to leave fastening bolts exposed so that I can change brands of servo if I want.
Still have to do the ailerons but pretty much ready for a final sand and then covering/paint.

Thanks, the scoop went pretty well. I melted out the foam with acetone. It didn't take much. Just a bit at first and then a bit more to rinse it out.
It left quite a rough surface on the inside but you can't see that part.
The outside I used west system with micro lite filler and sanded it smooth.

And the monocote is in the house!

Re: 40% Edge Build (another)
Hatch is now glassed. Just a few odds and ends to finish up.
Final assembly and a few pics prior to covering and painting.

Thanks Paul, ambitious for me but going to give it a try.
Thought I had lots of time before Huckfest but the clock is ticking.
