I have started on my empanage kit and have finished the vertical stabilizer and rudder. Really enjoying it.
I ordered all the kits, engine and prop on March 30. My general question is, at what points during the build do I need to make decisions about various options such as lighting, brakes, etc. As I've been working on the rudder I'm wondering if it is time to select and order my lighting since there will be a recognition light in the tail. Might I need a different tail fairing for example?
I don't want to get too far into the build and find that I should have done something differently given the options I wanted. What are these decision points for the tail cone? Again, light comes to mind but also maybe autopilot (servos)? And on into the rest of the build. When should I make interior decisions or avionics decisions?
I hope this question make sense. Any advice is appreciated.
