Today a milestone x 2 was achieved, the fuselage has been wrapped up both for the Avenger and the Dauntless. Despite of trillions of successful test fittings back and forth with the Avenger, when the sharp moment came, just struggle…
But finally the two halves became one
The Dauntless went easily, so easily, that test fitting the wings felt as a natural next step
Let’s see what next!

Thanks Lyle and Bruce!
What has been happening in "the background", paintwork with bit and pieces, no major build steps.
The propeller blades still need to be painted, after masking the blade tips and the hub.

Here is a really detailed look at the engine and how it fits.
