I’m now ready to cover my Javron fuselage with the Stewarts system. I plan on covering the bottom first, using the bottom longerons to attach the fabric. My question is how best to cover sides and top. Instead of using aluminum strings along the top of the rear deck, I welded on 5/8 inch tubing which ties into the wing root channeling and the top skylight channeling structure to define the top shape of the fuselage back to the vertical stabilizer. I was planning on using the central top tube to attach the fabric for one side and the bottom fuselage fabric to overlap the bottom fabric using the 1 inch rule for fabric overlap. If I do this, the overlap on the top for the second fabric side also needs to overlap by 1 inch, and will need to use a 3 inch tape to ocver the top ridge overlap.
Is this the best way to go or am I missing something?
Appreciate your help in advance
