The left chain (when viewed from the rear) gets flipped halfway around.

See how the tubes that the chain goes through cross:

Yup. With a chain of that length crossing it in a figure of 8 pattern would be easy.

Okay quick update.. I have been busy with other stuff and I have only being cleaning up what i already have done and added the string trailing edge which was a complete ????? to do.

Tomorrow I plan on getting the tissue/skin on the lower wing.

Update 2.

I have started to tissue the lower skin.


This process is very slow, I don't want to mess it up.

While that dries I have begun the tiresome process of fitting the string trailing edge to the upper wing.


I have been trying to put a slight crescent shape in each rib bay rather than have the trailing edge taught, this has slowed the process down some what.

Once I have the wings done it will be time to figure out how I will go about making the surfaces moveable. I currently have an idea for the rudder and wing warp (they moved together) but I can see the elevator being a problem .
