    Windsor models 1982 Stampe was a lot cheaper back in the day

    Nearly completed, Ive replaced all the rigging wires just need to paint the wing when the weather warms up a bit Drill the cowl for nylon inserts Hopefully this will eliminate the Cowl coming loose

    Have done a paint test area to check and it’s looking promising

    Bit of overkill on the servo setup the wood will break before the control system fails IMG_0179.MOV
  5. bert baker
    I’ve pinned it with Carbon rod and epoxied everything

    Having removed the rudder horn or what ever it’s called, reviled that it was in good order and not been hacked about, apart from one niggle, the nuts were the wrong size for the thread goin a closed loop anyway so it will be replaced

    I’ve had a look at the elevator horn and came up with this I was planning to have something bolted all the way through But think this will be ok with the correct glue an some side pinning What do you chaps think
  12. bert baker
    Yep think your all correct good to have others cast a eye over it
  13. bert baker
    The elevator suffered from a poor Snake installation, I’m going to make this one push rod 6mm carbon tube and 3mm treaded rod once made I shall fit the lock nut and some heat shrink over the rod

    PLM lower wing ready for paint Hmmm paint wasn’t cheap £45 for two rattle cans

    Depends on quantity, I still also cut ribs by various Old school Methods, Doing the CAD is a slow process for me The machines Can reduce the need for semi decent hand skills, so a real bonus for me
  16. bert baker
    Not checked yet, but I do know I have a copy of the tap file stashed in the house
  17. bert baker
    Smashing time

    Next up is to fire up the CNC router and cut some ribs for the rebuild of the Green and Silver Stampe, Hopefully the cut files will still be on the computer since curt some for Williams Blue Stampe so should be fairly straight forward

    Finally got the wings Re covered since a rebuild of my Premier Tiger-moth, mot was me who purchased all the Silver Solartex in the land
  20. bert baker
    I’m thinking on the same lines but trying Diatex 100
  21. bert baker
    All ready to cover, Although ow would have been better if I could get 1.2M of Solartex Satin Cub Yellow I've primed it with some Cover Grip Be interesting to see how it compares to Balsaloc Ive ordered the paint
  22. bert baker
    Slowly slowly
  23. bert baker
    Back to the grindstone time to get some balsa bashing done
  24. bert baker
    It’s a possibility have noted the low rpm the different array of fuel mixes on the petrol four strokes is a bit of a worry
  25. bert baker
