SteveM | 02-Jul-08 01:05 | The wing has a lot of ribs, 1.25" between centers. There is no spar like with the Aero Star or my Molt Models kits so I guess lots of ribs and stringers is how they get strength. I want the ailerons exactly to scale but the ribs are at the wrong angle. |
SteveM | 02-Jul-08 03:24 | I have started a build log for this plane over at RCGroups as I feel it is a better venue for discussing aspects of the R/C conversion. It will also be in a better location to help those who attempt this conversion at a later date. Not to worry, I will still post lots of pictures of it here too. |

SteveM | 02-Jul-08 12:54 | Before starting construction on the wing I was reading another build log from about 5 years ago where Mike Molt wrote "Boy, the ppl at Guillows sure like to have a lot of ribs in the wing". I didn't think much about it till I was half done with the wing and found myself echoing his words. |
