dc3-apr03

Here's our progress so far. A Technic spine has been added throughout the length of the fuselage. A wingbox has been added which the gear can be loaded onto. And here's everything stuck together temporarily just to show how all the components combine, including roughly where the engines, propellers, landing gear, tail gear, and nose will be.

 

There's plenty to still do including:

 

-Clean up the nose, and choose which approach

-Figure out how to loft the fuselage cross section between what's built and the nose

-Pilot door

-Underside of the wingbox

-Widen the landing gear mounts by a stud, due to larger props

-Fill out the engine nacelles, figure out the colour line break between top (white) and bottom (grey)

-Is it crazy to add some electrical elements?

-Wings and how to attach them with dihedral

-HStab

-Empennage

-VStab

-Order proper colour parts off BrickLink

-Tripod mount balancing

 

It's actually starting to look like a DC-3!
