What with all the rain and wind we've been having it has
been a good time to get stuck into the building.
I have completed the joint venture with Kev and hopefully
you will see the results very soon.
Now with the success of my F14 depron build I am now turning my attention
to another scratchbuild.
This time it's not even a flat pack kit.
I've downloaded the plans and will build using the sheets of depron available locally.
I'm even thinking of changing the plans slightly.
Plans show wings as a flat section but I'm seriously considering using
depron ribs to give the wings an airfoil shape and sheeting with lightweight balsa.
Power will be from a 70mm EDF and it will have no wheels so probably
handlaunch or bungee.
I'll post photos as build progresses.
