This is a series on building the DR-107 One Design (IMAC) r/c aircraft from the Matt Mrdeza plan. This plan was downloaded from outerzone.co.uk.
In this update, construction of the fuselage is continued. The aft turtledeck and forward fuselage sheeting for the battery compartment is started. The sequence alternates between the two as one area is worked as the other area may need drying. The battery hatch gets additional formers and stringers are added. The sheeting that covers the cockpit gets a little attention.
