Default RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Robert,
I am looking at buying my fabric from Aircraft Spruce, I belive it is Stits-Lite. Much cheaper buying from them. You need to get that Cub done and get a DR1 so you can build along.


I just went thru the box and it is a bit intimidating as there is ALOT of wood. All the wood appears to be of very good quality. You have to study the manual closely and make sure you use the right piece of wood in the right place or you will come up short. I think about as far as I will get tonight is getting all the sheeting and spars spliced for building the bottom wing then start assmbly of the wing tomorrow evening. All the wings are one piece and no dihedral so the build is pretty straight forward.
This is going to be fun!!!
