i got all the covering off, and i have the inner wing panel setup for flaps.
i have re-covered all control surfaces (rudder, elevator, ailerons and flaps) with a neon red. and im re-doing the wings in white. im also going to get one of my buddies with a vinyl plotter to cut out some big maple leafs. so im doing the red/white canadian flag theme 
sofar its looking good. the manual is garbage, they pretty much leave you on your own with the build. if i had not already done a build in the past, then i would be having a much harder time with it.
i have all the covering i need, servoes, prop and spinner are on the way. i only need the motor/esc, rx, and extension wires for the servoes 
i am also doing some other minor mods while im at it.
the elevator is supposed to be held together with these long heavy steel wires. having that much more weight on the tail isn't a good thing, so i went and got some 3mm and 2mm carbon rods to replace the 3mm, and 2mm steel rods. they are more then strong enough, and they weigh vertually nothing compaired to the steel.
i am using HS55 servoes to operate the flaps and ailerons, and expert mini servoes for the elevator and rudder.
