R to L: Motor mount from photos, crankcase accordingto plan,cylinders from Dare motor, intake from Dare motor kit. Should produce a reasonable facsimile of a P&W Wasp Jr. Fortunately it's mostly hidden by the cowl. |

Don C | Scratch Built Laird Solution | Build | 14-Jun-16 11:17 | | Views : 484 | Thanks for the idea, DD. Works much better. Also made the stringers heavier - 1/16 X 1/8. Will require some sanding. The balsa I get from my LHS is very good and consistent in quality, but it is soft as a slice of fresh white bread. That means my nimble fingers break a few pieces. Any ideas for getting a little harder balsa? |
