There it is all assembled. I just need to refine the motor mounts.
After spending yesterday in the machine shop I really did not have much left to find for parts. All I needed were the bullet connectors for the speed controllers. I ened up using Eflite 3.5mm connectors I found at the local Hobbytown. They were the cheapest I could find local at $2.99 a bag X 4.While I was looking for the bullet connectors I found these Trex 600 skids. I just had to have them. I almost bought the smaller set for a 450.... The 600's were a good choice, nice and wide, super tough. I think they will work out great.
I still need a little refinement. Like those bolts sticking out of the top. they wil be replaced with stainless socket-heads once I find the correct length.
