After cutting out a lot of those wooden parts in the original pic, most of them were not needed so were left out in the fuselage build. I did make up one or two new bits purely for strengthening the fuselage. I remade all the tail parts (not shown in the pics) and adopted a different mounting method for the stabiliser bars with the side fins on. The plans suggested drilling through the tail boom and fitting these with specially bent rods - far too fiddly as I have found out on one of my other heli's that has this same system. I have gone for a more direct mounting of these parts which is a lot easier and as it happens, it is exactly as per the full size 222.
