Hi Mark, The fit was pretty good.. The holes were there. I have to trim the rear of the tube about 1/4" to get a good fit at the rear. I had to spring the frame a little for the front to fit. Be careful trimming the rear, take off a little at a time. I kinda took to much off of one side. I will machine a spacer to fix it and I though about putting a threaded plug in the end and bolting it through the gussett... Maybe over kill..
How was the fit? Were your rear tubes in the frame pre-drilled with the one hole to help with the trimming? Mine weren't... :(
I Started the fuse and decided to add all of the Gussetts to increase the gross weight, and to simply improve the airframe.
