Opulence, I has it...
Having followed Van's instructions--in order--on the empanage, I look back and see I may have been better off doing things differently...say starting on the rudder vs. the HS (only an opinion).
I like the nice bite-sized pieces of the Emp., and was wondering if there are any issues anyone has seen with building the wings in some other sequence than prescribed in the manual. Tanks first (Proseal drying out over time?)? Flaps and Ailerons first (fitting issues?)? Any other suggestions?
I'm working in one half of a 2 car garage, so I don't want to put the jigs up until I absolutely have to. Building the main structure then having to find room for them is a hassle as well...where as the flaps, ailerons and tanks can go in the hanger (guest bedroom) relatively easily.
Thoughts? Thanks--
