Reintroduction of the Smasher
Though I completed the molds for the Smasher back in 2002-2003, I stopped making them as I started working on club pylon racing. I’m now getting back into full production of all of my fiberglass and composite parts. And I’m offering kits and parts in new configurations.
This is the Smasher. It has a bolt on tail. But it can be built with a conventional tail as the stab saddle is at 0 degrees to the wing and firewall. It uses the 66-012 airfoil with no modifications. Fully symmetrical.
I am now cutting 66-012 foam cores and very soon I will be selling sheeted foam cores using techniques borrowed from Bill Vargas and others.
I am making my plans for the wood bolt on tail user friendly and I will have plans for the conventional tail as well. I am going to do threads on building the wood V-tail and the wood conventional tail.
So I am offering the Smasher in these configurations (now):
Fiberglass fuselage, foam core, plans - $100 plus shipping ($25 in the US)
Fiberglass fuselage, sheeted foam core, plans - $150 plus shipping ($25 in the US)
Composite tail - $75 plus shipping ($15 in US, can ship 2 in one box)
I plan to have the molded composite wing done by June 1. The price will be very competitive.
