The structure you see weighs 16 grams. I'm estimating 28 grams, covered and painted, less rubber. hjlittman Guillows Series 300 - Piper Cub 95 Parked 29-Jun-12 23:08 Views : 1738 I get my 21st Century tool set up and the first thing I build is a design from the 19th Century. Go figure! hjlittman Guillows Series 300 - Piper Cub 95 Build 29-Jun-12 23:07 Views : 1577 Taking a little break to prepare something for a 4th of July flying session. No, it's not a model oil rig. hjlittman Guillows Series 300 - Piper Cub 95 Build 21-May-12 17:04 Views : 1760 Now to continue with attaching the nose. The whole nose assembly glues to the front of the fuselage.

This version is 2 grams heavier than my first try, but it can be handled with impunity. hjlittman Guillows Series 300 - Piper Cub 95 Build 11-May-12 17:25 Views : 1840 I find that miniture Scunci hair clips make good, low crush strength, clamps for delicate work. hjlittman Guillows Series 300 - Piper Cub 95 Build 11-May-12 17:22 Views : 1611 The rest of the stringers are 8 pound balsa. hjlittman Guillows Series 300 - Piper Cub 95 Build 11-May-12 17:21 Views : 1452 The formers are still contest grade stuff, 1/32" aft of the C.G., 1/20" forward, and 1/16" for the nose former. hjlittman Guillows Series 300 - Piper Cub 95 Build 11-May-12 17:19 Views : 1464 OK. Here we go again. After the "crushing failure" of my first attempt at a super light fuselage I searched out a specific piece of balsa to make my strip wood for the keels and the stringers at the edges of the fuselage.

I was sanding it prior to coverning. I tried to build it too light. I've started on a new fuselage with the same weight formers, but 8 to 10 pound wood for the stringers. It may still come out under 20 grams although I'll be happy if it's under 30. Luckily, I've done it once so the next one will be quicker.
