Just my 2p... When I drill the excessively oval holes I drill them over size, fill with plastic rod and then redrill the correct size perpendicular to the surface.

Hi Nigel, thanks for watching and commenting. Great tip! due to my inexperiance I think I was afraid of losing the hole centre postion so went with sprue-goo after drilling. Cheers

Корпус огромный. Легко радиоаппаратура любая поместится.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I don't know much about RC but you're right it does look like it should be easy enough to make it so.

Thanks for showing the build. I plan to use sellotape to hold the templates. Is there any reason you don’t use the motor drill for your drilling?

[@plungingfirescalemodeling2441]

Thanks for commenting. Sellotape would be more convenient. I didn't use a powered rotary drill as even the lowest speed is to fast for drilling plastic as it melts and sticks to the drill bit.
