Default RE: MK Beetle Build

In a PM rougedog asked about the top and bottom turtle decks shapes.

The bottom one is made from a single piece of balsa so is a simple partial cone shape.

The top is made from two parts that join at the top of the fuse to form a hard edge. Also the top deck has a curve up and flare out as it aproaches the canopy.

The fuse sides are made of two pieces that join midway down the aft fuselage.

Cheers
Tarquin
