Next project is the ME-410 Hornet. It will be RCCA Class 2948 Scale Combat legal with 60" wingspan and two ASP.15 swinging MA 8x3's for power






I have to admit that I am quite taken by twins. They require the extra mile, but the end product is well worth it. Making minimum weight of 4 # is a challenge but even at almost
5 # these birds fly great. I just completed the British version of the Hornet and now the Luftwaffe's turn.


I used the metal template method employing a printed scale drawing glued to a shaped aluminum template pattern. I then used my hotwire "scroll saw" table to cut the fuse and nacelles by following the edges of the aluminum template.





I used a carbon fiber arrow shaft for strength in the fuse, hotwired some ligthening holes and glued together with gorilla glue......very strong and very light.





The nacelles are foam with arrow shaft and HDPE engine mount.....ready to glue.





......and fuse and wing completed and ready for tape and covering.
