Wot 4 Extreme build

Hi
Started the build last night. First job was to heatshrink the wings, tail and control surfaces and seal all the edges of the solarfilm, when I opened the box you could see ripples and loose covering. It is rather tedious but I hate covering coming loose because it never sticks back. Then even more tedious is to seal all edges with nail varnish. (yes all edges). I smeared with epoxy the servo covers around the hole for added security.

Hi, take a look at "photo story
3" it's great for making quick videos and adding text, music to your projects. Mac do a similar.
Long lines of photos push the blog content down, if you could. Keep piccys to a maximum of 3 at a time that would be great.
