Got the wires installed permanently and mounted the ESC while I was at it.
For the chin scoop, I took some LE balsa I had in my bin and cut segments to install on the inner lip of the cowl to mount the printed part. I coated the part in foil and removed portions where glue would go. While not permanently mounted, I do like the look and the blue selected for the wires is a good subtle look. There is plenty of depth in this area and it is much more interesting to look at now with all the details.
So, what's a little more detail then? There are a few more parts on the nose of the crankcase that I assume are for the hydraulic prop blade pitch adjustment. The first prints were a bit too small but these look much better and the print itself is much better to print but does require a bit of sanding. I used a dremel to hollow out the bottom and then sand enough to get the mount angle right. I love the added detail here but there is one more part I got printed but not mounted...
The piece that is intended for the middle was being hollowed out a bit when the bit to my dremel slipped and ran up into the fingernail root of my left index finger. Lots of blood. I got the dremel turned off and applied pressure. Ran upstairs and put the finger under cold water for several minutes. Another reason I like winter builds is for the naturally very cold water from the weather outside. When it was so cold I could not stand it, I applied a paper towel and put it under pressure for several minutes. The bleeding had stopped and I applied some antibiotic ointment and a bandaid tightly wrapped. After my finger hurt from the pressure of the bandaid, I removed it and let it dry out. You can barely tell anything happened at this point but it still really hurts. Every project I've done draws blood but you never think about this when you start a project. I was super tired and my left hand was cramping from holding this small part from sanding it smooth. I should have walked away when I got the charlie horse in my thumb. I'm not a morbid person so I did not get and will not post pics of the injury. I understand that some are curious and others are squeamish so yeah... I got hurt... leave it at that.
