Then I added the wing.
here is the hatch. I'm sorry the picture isn't better.
Then I added the fairings.
I added some foam to the back of the fairings.
Here is the landing gear, I added some foam over the base of the landing gear to add some extra strength.
Here is the clearance between the scoop and the ground.

Mustang build log con.
To paint the wheels I covered it with masking tape.
Then I cut out a hole in the middle of the wheel all the way around the hub.
This is what it looks like when it is done.
First I put on the Silver coat of paint.
Unfortunately i sanded it with too low a grit sand paper. so it went through the water proofing, so the paper wrinkled a little bit, also the paper got scratched.
Then I painted the nose, wing tips, and tail stabilizers red. Next I masked of the canopy and nose.
Then I added the decals.
Here it is When it is done.
It was complex to build 5 (1 out of 5)
It took about 8-12 Hours to build
It took about 3 Hours to Paint (that is not including dry time)
It Was fairly easy to fly 3 (1 out of 5)
Do and Don't's
when you sand it do not use a low grit sand paper,
If you scratch build try to be precise when cutting out the pieces (it will go together better and easier),

FT Simple Cub Build log:
Here is the wing all done( I forgot that I was supposed to take pictures until it was all done)
When I cut out the fuse I left in the hatch opening, so that it would fold together better and easier and it would not break the edges.
Then I put on the doublers.
Then I folded it together.
Next I put on the bottom plate and horizontal and vertical stabilizers.
Then I folded the windshield.
Then I started the floats.
Next I folded it together.
Then I put on the bottom skins.
Here are the floats when they done And ready to paint.
Here they are when they are done.

Then I added the electronics and here it is when it is done.
It took about 2 hours to build
It took about 1 hour to paint (That is not including the dry time)
It was easy to build 1 (1 out of 5)
I didn't fly it yet
Dos and Don'ts
When you paint make sure you let the Paint fully dry before you put masking tape on.
Do a light base coat of paint before you put on your primary coat
