| scigs30 | Comet Taylorcraft | Build | 15-Oct-10 00:21 |  | | Views : 646 | | I was able to cut out the parts and started putting this plane together, so far it is going together just fine. I really like how the Taylorcraft curves are caught in this plane. It is easy to build this plane crooked since the stringers curve so much. I built it in my jig and soaked the stringer in Ammonia and water to pre bend them to shape. I will finish the fuselage tomorrow and start on the wings. I still have to build the nose block, add the paper cowl, add motor peg mount and add landing gear wire. |
| scigs30 | Comet Taylorcraft | Build | 13-Oct-10 19:36 |  | | Views : 644 | | I am onto my next build, the Comet Taylorcraft. I love these Comet kits, nothing fancy, just balsa and plans. The wood in this kit is pretty good. The average weight is 9lb\ft. I look forward to cutting out the parts, but never like sanding the ink. These still go pretty cheap on Ebay. Should be a fun build. |

| scigs30 | Comet Kit #3301 - North American Trainer | Flying | 13-Oct-10 17:12 |  | | Views : 1148 | | This Comet Kit flew pretty good with a little clay and downthrust. Not a bad flyer since I did not modifications during the build. I used 3/16 Rubber and a 6inch Peck prop. |
