It's basically all buttoned up until I put the decals on it. It's got some issues (wing saddle, paint color matching, covering wrinkles, etc.) but I'm overall happy with it. I think it'll look great in the air so I'm excited for some dry, calm weather next spring.
I've decided not to try and fix any of the issues for now although that may change by the time I actually fly it. I was a little too trusting of the laser cutting by the time I got to the wing saddle since everything else had been perfect fits. Lesson learned there.
I still need to finish the details on the wheel struts, connect the aileron and flap pushrods, apply the decals, and do a final balance. Right now, it looks like I'll be able to balance it with the battery which is really nice. Not sure of the AUW just yet. I'll measure that after the decals go on.
