Fuselage and Diagonal Support Struts

Aircraft: Bushcat 19-2226
Task Date: 08/05/2025
Builder: Malcolm Hardy
Category: Fuselage
Section: 11.2
Hours: 1 hr
Task:

Assembled fuselage diagonal side tubes.
I initally had problems because it looked like the incorrect parts had been supplied.
The first tube appeared to be too short, the middle tube looked to be too long and the last tube appeared to be too short.
I asked for advice on the Buhscat Facebook group and was advised to make sure the fuselage bolts were loose and to install the middle diagonal tube first.
I used this technique and all tubes fitted fine.
