Re: Covid constructing
Its my new Nav tower, just need to make a bracket to fit my 701
(Really its a job for someone who had engine failure in a Skyarrow and is having it rebuilt, just checking and replacing the odd component, its a horrible panel for a modern machine IMO )

Re: Covid constructing
This is where you gotta hope that everything is very straight below and that any square panels fit right.
Alot of them didn't so multiple adjustments needed even to the point of moving chassis outriggers, im only guessing and visually copying pics of the net and then you realise a component your trying to fit and look right is in the wrong place!
This is now the correct colour that the whole thing will be painted in
Stay safe all
