This is based on experience with other similar models. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Parked 02-Feb-11 10:42 Views : 1433 Like the original, the sub wing is quite strong (relatively). It supports the gear and keeps the top wing from bending. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Parked 02-Feb-11 10:39 Views : 1320 The Henschel came in at 10.4 grams, without rubber. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Build 02-Feb-11 10:36 Views : 1392 The paint scheme is that of the Spanish Air Force, circa 1942. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Build 02-Feb-11 10:33 Views : 1353 The radial engine is just a printed photo. Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Parked 02-Feb-11 10:31 Views : 1345 The Henschel, without a prop. The plastic Peck prop I was going to use added too much nose weight. I had to build a light balsa prop. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Build 02-Feb-11 10:29 Views : 1314 The flying surfaces are covered with brown domestic tissue that was pre-shrunk on a frame several times. Pre-shrinking is essential for the very flimsy tail and wings. I air brushed the tissue, while still on the frame, again to prevent shrinking. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Build 02-Feb-11 10:25 Views : 1163 The Henschel's decals were printed onto domestic white tissue, using a laser printer. The green background colour comes from the card stock that I used as a backing to hold the tissue as it goes through the printer. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Build 02-Feb-11 10:23 Views : 1169 The Henschel's landing gear. It took some effort to get the wire into the right place and also have the wheels turn smoothly. I really wanted the wheels to turn properly, so that I could get a smooth landing (and possible take-off) on the gym floor. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Build 02-Feb-11 10:19 Views : 1173 For the Henschel's rocker arm covers, I started with a long balsa cylinder that was tear drop shaped in cross section. I then carved and sanded the full shape, while still on the cylinder (using the cylinder as a handle). I then cut off the completed shape and then started another. John Cooper Dumas Kit #319, Sparrowhawk Build 02-Feb-11 10:16 Views : 1178 The frames are built around a lamination of 2, 1/32 strips Page (18 in total) :  1   2   3  [ 4 ]  5   6   7   8   9   10   11   >>  [ < Prev ] [ Next > ]
