**Updated photos. Almost complete and ready for her maiden. Used different color foam board to break up the plain white color. Also left off the wing struts. I owned a C182 and C210 and enjoyed the clean look of the strut-less C210.

Waiting for the weather to clear so working on my next build til then.

Do you think it makes any difference leaving the wing strus off ?

No, it makes no difference. They are just for show. I've flown mine both ways.
By leaving the struts off , I suppose the trailing edge (middle of the wing) could be hinged and made into a semi detachable wing to give more access to the fuselage ?

I can't say I've seen plans for the FT Commuter anywhere. have I missed it with my male pattern blindness?
