When the fuselage is assembled then it really will start to take shape. Look forward to that. Great upload Rob..😀.

Thanks Cosmo. The fuselage is what makes the planes for me well other than the Spitfire maybe!

Hay Kirk The tricky bit of the fuselage is getting the rear central. Think I may need to come up with a jig for the next one as one of the sides bowed out a bit. Thanks for watching mate.

Nice job my friend! Looking super nice 👍

Thanks Charlie. She is coming along now.

Mate, that Fuse looks downright STOUT! I've known the real Cessna as being a very docile, true flying Aircraft... I suspect that your Model should do the same. 👍👍

Quite clever way of making the Tail Wheel Rob!! I'm making a Foam Core Board Aircraft, slightly larger... The instructions say to use a wood skewer for a Tail Skid.... What you've done looks far more durable!

[@robbrennanbalsawoodplanes]

Hi Carmine. When built they are quite sturdy but I have broken a few formers in the past fitting them into the fuselage sides. One of the models I've built gave a choice between a skid or tail wheel, so I went for the skid for a change lol. Hope you are going to show us at some point Carmine?

I ATTEMPTED Balsa RC Aircraft many Ions ago... Expensive FAILURE!! 😫😖 This might be just the ticket. ..... I probably SHOULD put something up on my Scratchbuilt Foamie RC Aircraft. 😉.... Maybe 3 people will be interested. 😋 As far as FLYING Video.... That requires filming skills and equipment, that I don't possess. 😐 However, WHEN I finally get my inheritance... I'm getting a GoPro and a Fat Shark, FPV Goggles... So I can do RC Aircraft Video - FROM the Cockpit, FPV!!! 😎😊👍👍 I've just started on my 1/6th Piper Super Cub. 1280mm Wingspan!! ..... I'm "tweaking" a few things first. Like its tendency to nose over so easily on Landing. I did some simple Trigonometry, and decided to Move the Landing Gear forward about an inch! Currently, it's nearly AT the CoG, creating a pivot!! 😳
