• 11/13/2008 – Attached threaded rod to one end of bulkhead using washer and nuts on both sides.
• 11/14/2008 – Epoxied other side of bulkhead nuts in place with 5 minute epoxy. Marked electronics bay tube at 3″ and epoxied outside sleeve to tube with 2 hour epoxy.
• 11/15/2008 – Drilled top bulkhead to electronics bay hole with 9/32″ bit to enlarge the holes slightly so the threaded rod will not bind in the holes. Sanded edge of bulk plate on electronics bay.
• 09/01/20013 – Sanded nose cone shoulder and inside of fiberglass body in an effort to get the nose cone to fit. nose cone is still to tight in body tube.
• 09/06/2013 – Epoxied forward and middle centering ring into body tube and applied fillets to one side.
• 09/07/2013 – Applied epoxy fillets to other side of centering rings.
• 09/08/2013 – Attached one side of harness to motor mount tube.
