RE: Mis 'String' Bikini
Hi Sneasle,
I'll be traveling to CA the end of this week. While there I'll be visting my brother (He builds full scale), and I hope to have a chance to use his drafting table to redraw the plans and have them scanned at Kinkos. Most Kinkos in So. Cal are capable of handling drawing much larger than this one. Here in Nebraska if it can't be used to make steak, we aint got it! So with luck I'll be able to send you a scan of the plans. I'm still looking for someone to CAD the plans for me. Also, the planes show a built up wing on the top, and a foam wing on the side view. I used foam. The wings I cut used the airfoil from the ACE constant cord wing set. Follow the instructions that come with the foam wings to add a trailing edge. Only, use a piece of 3/16" x 1/8" balsa as a trailing edge cap. Then use the 3/16" x 3/4" Aileron stock. To go full house (4 channel) you'll need use micro or sub-mirco servos. So, if you want to start buildig order a set of ACE constant cord foam wings and the balsa T.E. cap and aileron stock.
If I can't get the plans scanned while I'm in CA, I'll redraw them and send you the original. If you look you'll see that the ink has ran on one of the bulkhead. This was due to me dripping acetone on the plans while working on another project. The plans were on the bench and covered with sheet plastic and news print. But the acetone weeped through pin holes in the plastic and then the plastic acted like a giant sqeegie and run the acetone over a small area. You can still see the dined lines of the bulkhead. So the plans are not wasted. Just not a pretty as they should be.
I'm happy that someone has shown interest in this little cuttie :-)
