Hi guys, I`m back.
Yes, I know, it was a long time of silence, sory for that. But I had to repair my Ryan STA. I crashed it in the middle of summer in a starting accident. The sidewind pushed it into our safety net, the wings and the elevator where broken, the fuse was also damaged,a desaster.
But, now it is finished (new wings, new elevator) and I gain from this the motivation to continue the Hawk.
I interrupted the story when I started with the wheels and the fuse.
O.k., we continue with the wheels. Nowhere you can buy wheels with 185 dimerte whith 45 mm tires. You have to make them your self. The parts for the rims I had always shown, now I putted them together.
After some work on the lathe, the first wight control.
72 gramms are not bad but I drilled some holes an here is the result
20 gramms per wheel, 40 in summary, o.k.
Now the tires.
I use rubberstring (normaly the use this in big airconditiones as gasket), glued it to a ring in a template and here it is
The last step by the wheels was covering the sides with glasfiber.
