Default RE: GP DR-1 Fokker set up & sugestions?

Loopman,

Sorry to hear about your losses.

I picked up the Balsa USA kit while at the Dawn Patrol, and am currenty thrashing it into shape (my meager and very rusty building skills just don't yet justify the Torrence kit, but it looks real nice). I'm hoping to have the framework done about the time the snow's gone here in Michigan.[&:]

I'll start the season with the GP Tripe, though, and barring bad winds, should be okay.

I concur on its flat turn ability - it has got to be seen to be believed - I suspect the short coupling along with no fixed fin help. You get a feel for how elusive the full-scale could have been in the Great War!

'til later,

Lee McDuffee
