RE: JAS-39 Gripen Owners/Build Thread
Hi all Gripen and Saab fans
We are a little team in Sweden that working on several Saab project to day.
The aircraft that we have most finish to day is JAS-39 Gripen in scale 1/6.
The reason for this scale is that we think the AW is little to big and the JL is to small. We also don't like this type of ARF kit with all wood inside and sometimes poor quality on the composite parts.
Our idea is to built a high quality kits in 100 % composite with good scale looking and very good flight quality.
The production method is for some parts in injection moulds and others in vacuum baging tex (fuselage) and tex fueltanks in autoclave whit overpressure and heat. It's gona be a very strong and light construction.
This is not gone be an ARF kit, we think many out there is little tiered about all ARF from china. So we are trying to make a real good kit for them who love to built there own jet aircraft. All the critical and difficult moments in the building process it's gona be done by us.
The status to day is the plug is almost finish. And we don't have any time schedule.
There is a building tread in a Swedish Jet forum, please take a look.
