Kevin K's Aviation Concepts Cessna 185 Build

[Sinkhappens86]

Less exciting progress lately. Wiring the fuselage, testing the lights, setting up the Powerbox, installed the release servo on the winder, set it up in the radio, and admiring the wingtips Gunny set me up with!

[Sinkhappens86]

Finished up the wiring, shaped the leading edges on the wings, and built some fuel tanks.

[Sinkhappens86]

Got my order from Morgans 3D printing for battery and igintion mounts. Drilled and pegged the firewall, got the spacer for the DA 150 epoxied together.

[Sinkhappens86]

Vinyl from Callie graphics arrived. Covering has begun.

[Sinkhappens86]

Got the exit for the winder towline installed and reinforced, and glued the root cap ribs to the wings.

[Sinkhappens86]

Wings are covered, wingtips glassed and getting ready for paint.

Covering continues on the fuse, got the engine spacer and cowl mounts installed.

Motor mounted, cowl cut and misc parts primed and painted.

A lot of progress, really pushing to finish it before Cumberland.
