Installed control sticks. Rear (primary) stick is installed permanently. Front stick is installed temporarily for now. Fabricated some missing pieces for later use. Started identifying and assembling other cockpit pieces. Namely seat rails, gear retract motor and hand crank, brackets and screws to mount motor and other misc. pieces. Just like the gear retract mechanisms in the wings, the hand crank assembly is beautifully made and turns as smooth as silk. There's an interesting label on the retract motor. Entretien du moteur. Balais. Doivent etre remplaces avant leur usure complete. s'assurer que les balais neufs coulissent librement avec un faible jeu dans les porte-balais. Leur qualite doit etre la meme que celle balais d'origine. Which translates to: Motor maintenance. Brushes. Must be replaced before they are completely worn out. Make sure that the new brushes slide freely with little play in the brush holders. Their quality should be the same as the original brushes. Basically, don't let the motor wear out and replace worn parts with good ones. The label is not much use since it's on the underside of the motor which is mounted underneath the front seat. Not too likely to be seen. I'd checked the motor when I first got the project and it's going to need work. It's not working right now.
