it will get flying wires--the power i like and the way i fly the wing will fold shortly on 99+% of the kit i or scratch built plans i have ever dealt with(example-140 mph art chester jeep doing vertical 8 loops ect the size of control line stunt planes-g-forces would kill a human pilot)after 10+years of competing(and winning) in c/l combat and rat race in 70s i just dont know how else to have fun with r/c scale types!-do love flying my pt-19 though(at scale speeds)

will cut peep holes in covering(from bottom)and see whats there and if need be uncover it and add spruce or carbon strips to existing spars--and also make the peep holes where i can add flying wire mounts--probably .030-050 6061 t6 aluminum sheet.have lots of this laying around from monoque race car construction and repair.also ply webs.

the landing gear/fuselage mounts (for wires)will be fairly easy to do--cut slot with dremel and insert aluminum angle from inside.
the ones on the fuse will also need to be continuous from side to side(from sheet alum)so as to relive the stress on glass fuse and carry the load continuously through the structure.

hope fully the wing has enough ribs to handle compression loads from the flying wire loads!--dont look foward to building a new wing but will if needed as the loads can crush structure along length of span--like an accordion.

will use cable for wires and large threaded clevises(with lock clips) for adjustment--not scale but best way i have found over time--adjustable and strong.

anyway have not seen kit yet so not sure what will be needed.figuring out ways to solve above things dont let me sleep so i will be glad when it arrives so after looking and about 2 more sleepless nights deciding how to do it i can get back to normal--what ever that is!

when i draw my own large scale race planes i like to use angle or square tube aluminum spars for 1/3 to 1/2 span--nothing like security!

did you have any problems during construction?

thanks for your input and feed back as this is invaluable.

hope you field is ready soon so the gee bee can fly!




thanks
