hjlittman | HJL Models P-36 Hawk | Parked | 17-Nov-21 20:15 | | Views : 494 | There is another NoCal on the horizon, a Giant Scale Bristol Beaufighter. The one in the picture is the first prototype. It was built with 1/16 stock like my smaller one. It would fly but warped with a warm breath. I built the next one with 3/32" stock. (Video) It's not that much heavier but much easier to handle and transport. The short flight in the video was so that Dave Gee could get a video of it. It's flying on a few hundred turns on single loops of 3/32" rubber. More winds would put it up at the ceiling. On 1/8" rubber, outdoors, it's a different animal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVY3ZEZ8gCc |
