Andy Green Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Latest edition a 1/4 (stand off) scale Nieuport 17 in the Lafayette Escadrille scheme, some final finishing off to do. It is 80" span and fitted with an NGH 25cc petrol engine, and guided with JETI. Full build blog on my website. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Green Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 Thank you Tony. As yet unflown. Still the radio install to do, and the odd detail to add, like the headrest. A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Cotsford Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 It is nice Andy, my only experience with the type was a 40" Boddington design in the 80s or thereabouts, it was a lovely flyer and I've often been tempted by the Flair Legionair. How easy is the 80" job to assemble and then to strip for transport? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john stones 1 - Moderator Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 One of my favourites, still not finished mine, what engine you have in Andy ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Green Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 John - I have an NGH 25 petrol 2s. Origonal I think has a CRRC 26cc. Hi Bob, 10 screws for wings and U/C not assembled at patch yet, but take about 10 mins in the workshop. No rigging to worry about. A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
