elevatoranj | 28-Mar-09 14:46 | I know that I am a nut, and I have three airplanes over half done, But I have been 'bitten' by the rubber band bug. I just bought a really good deal on E-bay and I can't wait to start this beautiful comet kit |
elevatoranj | 28-Mar-09 14:59 | I'm going nuts on this one. Buying a winder, and Esaki tissue. I'm going to build tail as light as possible, use as little glue as possible and use dope to seal tissue. This kit has a 54" wingspan, solid wooden wheels, which I plan to replace. If anyone knows how to build it lighter, Please say something now as I will be looking to get at least a minute long flight with rubber 'engine' |
elevatoranj | 28-Mar-09 15:15 | Novice Builder has decided to follow suite with a Beech bonanza, made by Herr Engineering. It has a 30" wingspan, Laser cut parts,(she loves that part), But a dihedral tail, I have no Idea how to trim that to fly, But I bet she will only eat dirt once and we won't have to worry about that anymore |
wingspanner | 28-Mar-09 15:31 | Sounds like a challenge. I'll put my money on Novice Builder. The herr kits are superb! |
elevatoranj | 28-Mar-09 17:43 | You would be crazy not to, wingspanner, The Herr kit is fantastic and she starts with less tail weight without skimping on lumber. The sure thing is, mine will make a bigger pile after the first hard landing. |
