This week I finally received some of my missing parts. I didn’t get everything, most notably my replacement longerons. I need those in order to finish the tail and connect that to the center fuselage.
One of the parts I received was the other rudder pedal assembly, so I built all of that section up. I installed the eyebolts that will be used to connect the pedals to the nose wheel. However there is some interference between the nuts and the control stops. I may flip the orientation of the bolts to fix it, but I’m going to check with TAF because it may be another error in the instructions.
Other than that, I worked on priming the other new parts, specifically the parts involved with moving the rear seat up 3 inches.
Next is to figure out the rudder pedals and keep priming parts before it gets too cold outside.

I did the same thing with the rudder pedal bolt orientation! It shows on the page between E10 and E11 the bolt heads on the inside to allow for clearance. Also, I confirmed it in the factory photos from Craig’s Sling 4 Build Log. If you haven’t seen it-

At the top menu there is a selection for factory photos, and he’s got them broken down into a few categories. These have become my absolute best guide for the fuselage part of the build!

Yeah, I saw that after the fact. Yet another reason to be very cautious following these instructions. I’ve built and disassembled this plane probably a dozen times already.
