I have finally finished the empennage and would like to know if starting
the either the flaps or ailerons next (build order) would have any
advantage. Wings will need me to access the garage which will take a
ACT OF GOD/

Hopefully you are in good terms with God...?

Ken, If your space is as limited as you say, you would be best to do either the ailerons or the flaps.Either one would be fine because you have to do them eventually. They very simple constructionand very straight forward. I commented to my wife this afternoon how I can't imagine anyone STRUGGLING with buildingin a single car garage or having to share a 2 car with your spouse. I got VERY LUCKY. Mywife OFFERED to give up her space so my entire 2 1/2 garage is now my shop. Best of luck to you and happy building!Tailwinds and Blue Skies Always,Ken, |

I did my flaps and ailerons before starting the wings. I would
recommend it, they require a fair amount of work space as you build
them but don't require very much storage space after they are done.

I built my Zodiac in a 8 1/2' X 24' cargo trailer and stored the finished parts hanging from the rafters in my father's garage. You can build the plane in a very limited space as long as you have a good place to store the finished sub-assemblies. I built the fuselage last as that would was the largest single sub-assembly. when the fuselage was complete, I hauled every thing to a hangar for final assembly.
