Good luck with the rest of the build.

Be happy to write something up once it's all finished and we can get the important flying photos.
Great, will look forward to it.

I've started adding a few more components that are easiest added at this stage of the build, which in this case is the lighting.
The OV10 has a single beacon light on the top of the horizontal stab, so this has been fitted. Sequence wise I've programmed this with a UniLight 8 channel controller.

The tail beacon light recessed in to the skin of the rear stabiliser.

The last job today was to start adding the form shape for the rear of the wing, that will eventually form in to the shape of the rear of the main fuselage.

Current weight for everything in the image is a little under 8kg, so I'm still hoping to get this in under 20kg.

Due to health problems I will no longer be able to finish this model. So this is now for sale in the condition you see it in from the latest photos.
This is the wooden frame only, but I can also sell some glass cloth if anyone wants that as well to finish the project.
Looking for £350 ono.
Located in Telford, Shropshire, but can take it to the BMFA National Centre, or Weston Park / Cosford over the next month or so.
