RE: WWI Profile Combat
Well, I finally rebuilt the SPAD. Made it better than it was. It is about two ounces lighter (Took out all the extra wing bracing that I thought it needed. It also has perfectly straight wings with about 1 degree negative incedence in the upper wing (the original wings had so much twist that even after applying heat and weight every night for a week you could still see it from a distance. It was a bear to fly. Should be much improved now. Waiting for flying weather.
Since the Dawn Patrol Games also use bombers, I am building one of those too (Caproni Ca.42). Here it is so far. Need two more wings, tail feathers and a center pod wor the pusher engine. I am planning to use 3 Saito 30s. I heard the other day that the Dawn Patrol Games are scheduled for early April. I'll be ready!
