Internal Framework
It starts with the internal framework.
The layout of the framework is laminated to 1mm cardstock.
Cutting them out, it shows, that MB-A and MB-B are not corresponding with the picture in the instructions.
But I think that does not matter.
But I dont trust the inner cutout of MB-1.
So I glued all parts together except MB-1.
Next the inner part of the nose and the front and bottom part of the hull.
I glued them together an tryed the fit of the parts.
As expected, the inner cutout of MB-1 was to small.
I cut away about 1mm on top and at the rigth and left side.
Also was it necessary to cut away some card at MB-B.
At the bottom of the U shaped front I tokk away about 2mm and 1mm on the inner right and left side.
Then the hull parts fitted very good.
Cutting out the hull of the mainbody gluing it to the framework and preparing the rear end hull.
Putting the hull to the frmework showed a flare in the construction.
MH-MID is not placed at the highest and broadest place of the hull so it shows on the topside a hollow area.
We will see what effect this will have when attaching the rear body.
