Roger-
Regarding storing the QB kit:
First of all, you won't BELIEVE the size of the boxes! They are huge and
unwieldy. You will save much space if you do uncrate the thing (carefully
inventory and store the components.)
Second, you WILL need to climb into the QB fuse and make airplane noises.
Sorry, it's just a fact.
Third, I'd be real skittish about storing it under a tarp. that high-moisture
environment won't be good for al that aluminum. If you need to store
off-site, better to get a storage locker somewhere and have it delivered
there, where it can sit in dry safety.
Good luck and have fun!

Howdy Builders,
I've got my gear mounts in and fitting pretty well but haven't drilled them
yet. I would really love to relieve the holes in the mounts just a bit since
some of the bolts tend to want to go in a little cocked and therefore hard to
get in. But I do see that sloppy bolt holes would be a bad thing for landing
gear mounts!
There was a comment in the archives about enlarging the holes being commonly
done and I'd like your thoughts on this. I was thinking of passing, say, a
17/64th drill thru the AN4 holes and something similiar thru the larger mount
holes. Would this be a good idea, and is an extra 64th the right amount?
Responses appreciated.
