What a great build.

Hi, great build. I am building the Valueplanes Nieuport 28 1/3 scale with same EME 70. I watched your video on that as well. How did you do your hinges on the ailerons and elevators on the Nieuport?

[@kennyh345]

hello, thank you for the compliments, I used dubro flat hinges with a piano wire going thru all of them so I can remove the control surface if needed.

Really wished I had the chance to build a wooden plane, the kits have really dried up. Looks like I’m stuck with arfs and foam board hot glue for now

Balsa USA still sells kits.

Did the instrument panel come with the kit?

[@kennyh345]

no, the panel is from Mick Reeves

What is the cowl diameter? Looking to buy one of these at the end of the month and was checking on engines that would fit.
