Dear Big_Bird: The PIPE Here again...and recently my German Email buddy placed some of HIS Bücker aircraft photos up at his site, specifically at http://www.biplanes.de/show_hihai_03_buecker.shtml ....NOT just Jungmeisters this time! I'm ALSO getting Jens Klank, my buddy over in Germany, to help me in obtaining photos OR drawings of the EXACT fuselage framing layout/geometry of just about the ENTIRE full sized Jungmeister's fuselage....I have YET to find ANY info on the exact structural layout on the Jungmeister's fuselage here in North America, as THAT info WILL BE A MUST-HAVE before I can get on with the task of even BUILDING a Giant Scale Jungmeister. let alone actually CAD-drawing it up first! And you may ask...just WHY am I looking for EXACT structural layout & geometry details for MY Giant Scale Jungmeister's fuselage??? That's because Carl Clemens Bücker and his Swedish colleague Anders ANDERSSON (who COULD have been a distant ancestor of ABBA's keyboardist BENNY ANDERSSON), the designers of the original full scale Jungmeister, unintentionally, ALREADY designed "the perfect RC model structure" for an RC model Jungmeister...which would be, curiously enough, THE EXACT STRUCTURAL LAYOUT OF THE FULL SIZED ONE...so, by following as MUCH as possible the layout OF the full scale aircraft's structure, even with DIFFERENT materials-these being composite fiberglass and carbon fiber tubing (but of a similar format, that being ROUND pieces of tubing) than the full scale aircraft had, I'd be building the STRONGEST, and yet the LIGHTEST in weight, fuselage design for my upcoming RC Giant Scale ABBABIPE Jungmeister's fuselage construction!!! And if ANYONE reading this thread actually HAS photos OR scale drawings of the Jungmeister FULL SCALE fuselage structure/layout/geometry in their possession...PLEASE, if you could, make them available to share with me for my needs, as before too much longer I'd LOVE to get going on at least the CAD drawing portion of this project...with NO true "modeler's workshop" at my home (which HAS to be created FIRST before I can start flying OTHER aircraft besides my ever-so-sturdy Swizzler) I'm just able to ONLY work on the CAD portion for now!!! But check the photos out there...and MORE Jungmeister AND Jungmann photos are "scattered about" Jens' site as well on other pages there besides the "linked' one I've mentioned already! PLEASE help me get that Jungmeister fuselage framing and layout info...someone??? Yours Sincerely, The PIPE!
