this build is already taking too long it no longer fits in the screen so let’s get her finished let’s finish her up and let’s get her in the air first step of joining the rear end to the fuselage should be quite simple we just need to push everything back through as it was before and screw it all down using one two and three bolts top one should be fine cuz we can reach in through the top the bottom two are probably going to be a bit more fun need to need long arms for this one it took some wiggling it took some jiggling and it took a long no screwdriver with a ball end but we got those three bolts in and everything’s now ready to go nice and tight having screwed down the pipe for the first time it seems to have a bit of Wiggle bit more than I would like so I’m going to drill a spare hole there and there see if we can just get that screw in closer to the edge of the cone tighter to that so it’s got play in it with those two extra screws in that little bit closer just keeps everything nice and tight so we got no unwanted movement in there next up Turbin’s going in place and we need to see exactly where to install our smoke injector now this is the one from jet cat stainless steel we just need to slice it in there something like that I ended up installing it the other way around as you can see the curve here wasn’t quite right for this turbine and Cone it was much better with the straight end which as you can see now fits right into the back there so this end which had been flattened into a sort of injector nozzle we just had to cut that off and we’ve now connected up our fuel line which goes to our smoke pump we’ve tied that off so it can’t go anywhere and we made up this little Mount now the tube does come with a couple of metal clamps which just screw into place but due to the Gap in where that would have needed to be I would have had to make a plate just to hold those so I rather just make the plate and tie the tube to it that’s Kevlar tie Kevlar string basically a few holes wrapped around tight knotted into place and then with some CYO just for some added safety so that shouldn’t be going anywhere with that said we’ve got our turbine basically in place servos are now finally connected ready to go and we can move on forwards the turbine we’re going to remove one last time after all we aren’t quite finished and we want to have it be the last thing installed so there’s no risk of it absorbing any kind of dust or wood particles but we are just going to make sure that the wires when running forwards are going to clear our tank which as we saw in the previous video Tank’s going to go there wires are coming somewhere over here so that’s roughly where our ECU is going to go so we can now continue with the tank no issues as mentioned in the previous video I wasn’t a fan of the felt type clunk so here we have our two new fuel lines with our big heavy clunks with nothing behind them nice and easy for our pumps to suck through one for few Fu one for smoke into the Tank tank into the plane Overkill well probably yeah we have two velcro straps one that goes comes under comes back again and the same at this side and that way it can stick onto itself then we have the four cable ties that we mentioned on the wooden supports going into the side rails just to make sure it can’t twist or move forwards or backwards anywhere we’ve plumbed in the fuel lines tied them all down with metal ties and our fuel system’s basically ready to go now next up we just need to sort out a few wires that come from the back moving forwards and then we’ll be able to put landing gear in installing the struts was straightforward we just insert them into our retract mechanism there’s a bolt that runs side to side there so just need to tighten that up now doing that from the inside there well a little bit of a pain but easy enough to do and then there’s this secondary screw in there which also prevents it from being able to twist now we’ve run down the inside here the brake wire which runs down there and then in here we’ve just got one cable tie you can just see the head sticking out there and then all the wires run together with the rest of the wires from the plane heading forwards towards our power box we’ve started wrapping them all together now to keep things light and to avoid cable ties and bases and so on we’ve just got some electric tape and that’s all been sign outed to the side of the fuzz same applies for our fuel line and our smoke line now it may look a bit chaotic at the moment but this is when things should start coming together and everything should start fitting in place I’ve made this piece of wood which is going to support our ECU we’ve measured to make sure that that’s the right location distance-wise for the wires that come attached to the turbine for the ECU that’s just being epoxied in place you can see the three screw holes which will be holding it there and then just next to it we’ve got our breather valves or breather nipples for the Overflow of both our fuel which is the big tube and our smoke which is a small tube now to make sure that the pump inside the turbine has no issue in socking fuel through I’ve actually gone for 8 mm tubing all the way around the back of the tank before coming all the way to the front again and then connecting to our breather so we should have no siphoning off of fuel and with an Big 8 mm tube we should have no issue of the pump struggling to Su fuel through everything else is going to be 6 mm this is the tray that comes with the k it it looks quite lightweight it’s got lots of holes in it and conveniently it’s already got a cut out for our uat so we’ll give it a chance this is where that trail go normally I would be looking to install it further forwards however as it’s a split fuselage and we want to be able to split it in case we get any nice fun trips or we need to ship the model anywhere we are going to try it here and hopefully avoid having to use too much weight in the nose or too many big batteries with still going to be running the smoke pump up the front and as much as possible we’ll be going forwards to try and avoid the need for any extra weight and hopefully this is what our tray is going to look like we’ve got our cutout for the uat as we mentioned we’ve got our powerbox systems Mercury sr2 which is going to be controlling everything and right next to it we’ve got our pilot RC controller for the brakes and ret tracks they’re both going to receive the wires through that cutout there now I did have to modify that slightly just because that that particular hole was too big and I didn’t want to leave just a hole without any reinforcements so the covering doesn’t start peeling back when we start pushing wires through now the reason for that is simply that in installing our Mercury as far forward as possible same for the controller hopefully everything further forward means less problems with getting the right CG with all our wires arriving more or less at the right place and our board in theory finished this all just slots in here something like that just bear with me we’re doing this onehanded there we go so we’ got all the wires from one side of the plane coming down the side going down under and then coming out to our power box we’ve got exactly the same happening over on the other side they’ll be coming up into here as well and then just over there as you can see we’ve got that board for our ECU which again will have the wires running down to our power box and then back to our turbine now that we’ve got our Pro interface screwed into the fuzz you can maybe see why I chose to use that side of the fuselage rather than the other side that’s right it’s got its ports on the top so whenever we need to connect our GSU we can take our wire and we can still plug it in to our interface relatively easily all without needing to use use any extenders adapters or anything that’s heavy and here we have our first glimpse of what our tray should look like so we’ve got our uat more or less in place don’t pay too much attention to the tubes yet they still need to be locked down so those two will go together that way they’re out the way of both sides of the landing gear we’ve got all our wires pass through they just need to be inserted into our power box or retract controller once that’s sorted we’ll just lock those in place we need to put one more wire through from our ECU or Pro interface through to our power box then we’ve got these two tubes here which are our smoke in from our tank and our smoke out to our injector nozzle which will be running further forwards to our smoke pump we just need to run our batteries to our power box and we’re basically done so I think it’s time to actually uh join the front half onto here and finish up all the wiring after quite a bit of wiring we’re done so let’s go over it from the back moving forwards on the rear hatch we obviously have our turbine we already saw our smoke nozzle coming out the back that’s going forwards along with the turbine wires they’re also going forwards they’re all joining up with the elevator wires on this side which join going up as well with the uh Vector servos we’ve got a load of wires going down that side and then we’ve got the same at the top going the other way obviously less wires cuz that’s just one vector and one elevator this one here includes the rudder as well in the center section we obviously have our fuel tank which we already saw go in we’ve got our turbine feed line going across the top there wrapped to the tank so that it can’t get in the way of where the landing gear is com in and coming out of obviously we don’t want anything catching then down here we have most of the rear wires coming through they’re coming through to our turbine RC interface the pro interface that then runs into our power box for Signal then the rest of the wires just keep going forwards to the power box itself and finally it’s time to close all up get her ready for a first trip to the Flying Field that’s number one done and number two and number three so this is what our radio Bay looks like we’ve got our Mercury sr2 we’ve got our landing gear controller at the back obviously the switch for the Mercury the GPS for the gyro the power boox ey gyro and our uat the uat we’ve got the fuel lines coming in from the main tank on the top there and then going out again towards the turbine all routed through the center there so they’re out of the way of the landing gears on both both sides we’ve got our jet cat RC interface the pro interface here that runs through into our Mercury as well we’ve got the uh GSU port on the top there so we can easily connect that if or when needed we’ve also got the Telemetry data coming out of here going under our radio Bay into here which y leads it to one of the receivers just at the top there before going into our power box so we’re getting full Telemetry from the power box from all three receivers and from jet cat as well running back from there on one side we have all of these which are our battery leads for the turbine which go into the uh turbine wires just behind the pro interface and we’ve got two tyon lines which are our smoke in so coming from our fuel tank and our smoke out coming from our pump which we’ve placed all the way at the front here so as to avoid having to add too much nose weight same for the batteries they’re going to be sitting on there we’ll be checking the CG in a moment and we’ve got as our turbine battery is 3s we’ve gone for an xt60 connector and our power box batteries are Multiplex so there’s no way to confuse a 2s with a 3s and hopefully we won’t be making anything go pop and then the batteries from the power box are both running down this side they’re collecting up with the wires that run from the pump along with the ones for the servo for the steering and that landing gear they all run to the back there and here we just have our filler line with our tap just held on with velcro so it’s easy access and there she is in all her ginormous Glory make sure to tune in to the next video where we’ll be doing the maiden flight checking over and we’ll start having some real fun with her hope you’ve enjoyed the build series once we’ve got her flying right I’ll share with you all the setup as well so tune in for that one subscribe if you aren’t already and we’ll see you all in the air
