Hello,

I started this project about a month ago. The desire to make this model entirely from composite material was a long time ago. The main problem was to get the weight about 16 kg model. I do a lot of experimenting with the technology and materials. Now I'm sure it's possible. ...

Are you going to cover the plane in cloth then use these parts as "aluminum" fairings, or is the complete plane going to be molded?

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in my work. I'll try to make a copy of the aircraft numbered 14081. I have lots of photos and drawings. Model in scale 1: 3.
In my plans to make a model entirely from composite material. I'll have to make 24 negative forms for this. Next, I will make this plane "sandwich" technology. The material will be using the material HEREX.
I am pleased to be writing about their work. There is absolutely no secrets! If there are questions, Toya will answer them ...
Today I received the first finished parts. I was happy ...

Albert

What kind of wax are you using to pop finished parts from mold! Very impressive work where do you get the pink blocks of molding foam, is the white finish gelcoat? Thanks trosclairbilly@yahoo.com
