David perry 1 Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 This.... "Surely it makes sense to just build the aileron wing and inhibit them on the TX when you want to fly on just rudder and elevator. To be honest, though, I'd agree with Nigel; flying is so much nicer with ailerons. 😊" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Ryan Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 It's not clear from the plan or the first article if rib 3 is cut into 3 or the first solid rib after the dihedral braces, can anyone who has done the build let me know? I'll figure it out once I get to adding the dihedral anyway just curious . Also any tips on joining the wings to ensure the correct angle and that the root ribs are at the correct angles for joining?

Colin Anderson Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 It's only ribs one and two that are cut into sections. I set the angle on the first wing half to the centre line of the dihedral brace; I didn't add the root rib to the second half until I'd lined it up with the first half and the dihedral brace. Not the normal method, but it works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Anderson Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Oops! As luck would have it - after I posted the above - I found the plan! I'd not weighed the model previously, as I didn't have a scale. All up weight is 2 1/2 ~ 3 lb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
