I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

John Cooper Guillows Series 500 - Junkers JU87 Stuka Build 04-Apr-08 18:58 Views : 932 I added some extra 1/32 stringers to give the fuselage a better shape. John Cooper Guillows Series 500 - Junkers JU87 Stuka Build 04-Apr-08 18:57 Views : 757 On the fuselage, I thinned out most pieces and used 1/32 balsa for the rear bulkheads. John Cooper Guillows Series 500 - Hawker Hurricane Parked 19-Feb-08 23:25 Views : 1376 Note the large amount of rudder offset, mostly to counter the port wing's drag flap. There is also a fair amount of right and down thrust, working against the torque. John Cooper Guillows Series 500 - Hawker Hurricane Parked 19-Feb-08 23:22 Views : 1629 Not a Guillows Hurricane, but a scratch built one, about the same size. It is a little battered after years of flying and repairs. The port wing has a drag flap to keep it from spiralling to the left. John Cooper Comet Curtis Hawk P6-E Flying 11-Feb-08 23:05 Views : 1770 Doing well for the first session with flights around 40 sec. Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Parked 11-Feb-08 23:03 Views : 1252 The rubber is stretch wound to about 600 turns. Note the balsa wood blast tube to protect the fuselage from a possible break in the rubber. John Cooper Comet Curtis Hawk P6-E Parked 06-Feb-08 19:31 Views : 2064 The heavy Peck prop, at 3.5 g, account for 1/3 the weight of the model. It also balances the plane without adding nose weight. John Cooper Comet Curtis Hawk P6-E Parked 06-Feb-08 19:28 Views : 1804 The completed P-6 comes in at 10.3 g (without rubber). Just a little over my target wieght. John Cooper Comet Curtis Hawk P6-E Build 04-Feb-08 22:43 Views : 1711 Rigging is done with a needle and thread and is sewn through the structure. Note that the proper dihedral is now restored. John Cooper Comet Curtis Hawk P6-E Build 04-Feb-08 22:40 Views : 1667 The frail structure bends and looses it dihedral under the weight of the wings. Bracing wire is essential. John Cooper Comet Curtis Hawk P6-E Build 04-Feb-08 22:38 Views : 1636 Lego makes a great jig to line up the wings.
