RE: Douglas DC-7
Hi Jerry; this is an earlier picture of DC4 construction. the fuselage is now covered with 1/8 balsa the tail surfaces are covered with 3/32 and are installed and covered with 3/4 oz cloth and Z poxy. I am presently working on building the landing gear.( as the Robarts mounted in reverse did not work well on my DC7- not their fault) will try to take updated pictures and post this weekend. I would like to hear how the 1/10 DC7 's mentioned earlier in this forum flew and if they had pitch problems. I had no pitch problems on the first flight as I apparently did not pull the nose up steep enough on the first flight. The second thru 5th were scarry John
