Default RC Cosmos Mariner

I did some more work on my RC CM yesterday. Originally had decided to make it BG with the internals from the kit, but due to poor parts fit (the front CR and weights barely fit into the BT-55 tube) I'm moving on to an RG.

Progress so far (photos coming later):
Built all the balsa parts.
Cut out the sub fin to allow full movement of both evelvons.
Made new motor mount (sized to accept E9-P motors).
Cut new BT-55 tube to hold motor mount.
Covered exposed balsa with trim monokote.
Sourced the RC gear and mocked up servo placement (in hanily provided molded trays in the bottom half of the body shell).

Things to work on:
Control linkages.
Hinges.
Assembly and paint.
