RE: Don Muddiman Flying Machine
Well you know guys all I read on this Flying machine, it drives home the fact of NOT deveating from the plans or building instructions. These call specifically for 6 oz. glass to be used and when I got a hold of this stuff my first comments were, this stuff seems to be way overkill BUT this is what they call for so I'm not going to devieate from that and used it. Now I hear there is 2 oz being used with out any bad results. Right wrong or indifferent, I didn't want to re-invent the wheel on this so thats why I asked. I thought about the C.Fiber route but I wanted to stick to the original plans again because it was proven and I didn't want any bad results in the air.
Has anyone just glassed the whole wing with 3/4 oz and used thin C.Fiber layed on the Spars? This seems like it would be more than strong enough....no?
Thanks again
