Sorry for the lack of updates folks, there just isn't that much excitement to be seen from putty,sand, putty, sand!

Just a suggestion about the sensor area to get a better fit, perhaps cut the nose area from your Apache off from the cheeks and then fit the parts separately. This will allow you to have a circular mounting for the upper sensor instead of the odd shape in the pictures and the cheeks can be faired in after fitting however you wish to fit them.

It's looking great so far  :thumbsup:

Gondor

Gondor, I have seriously considered your suggestion, I thought about it for a few days, but after a lot of deliberation I feel It will add a lot more time to something I am pretty satisfied with already. Plus there is no guarantee I won't botch it and add more time, or worse have to start it over again!  :banghead: I was not planning on making the sensor a perfect circle in the first place so I don't mind the odd shape either.  Thanks for mentioning it though, Like i said it makes a lot of sense and I was planning on doing it for a while before deciding not to  :bow:

Overall this project isn't going half bad-- all the rotor sub assemblies are set. I just have to put them together. The nose fairings are in the same ball park, just a matter of gluing them. I plan on priming where I sanded and loooking for flaws today  :cheers:


In other "Real life Ben news" I might be taking a week off of building or so to handle some other things, we will have to see. apologize for the delay  :thumbsup:
