| hjlittman | 25-Jan-26 00:42 | | The original aircraft is mid wing and torpedo shaped with the the thrust line right down the middle of the fuselage. Since the model is rubber powered there is no room for a one piece wing. Having experience with 1930s model design I know that it's not practical to simply glue the wings on the sides. I drew the formers in the middle of the fuselage with enough clearance for the motor but with enough "meat" to hold glued in tubular stub spars for the wings to slide onto giving strength at the root and holding the proper incidence and dihedral. |
