RE: Curare build
Hi All,
the wood I have for the fuse sides will allow extending the fuse up to 4 inches without splicing. From a couple of posts on the "Longer Curare" thread I am thinking of extending the fuse around 1.5 to 2". I am building this as a BPA ship with 61 2c. with retracts.
I've got enough wood to build 6 fuselages - so I think I'll do two right off. maybe - one stock, one extended. Anyhow I'll cut enough parts for two fuses....
I am going to go with a foam turtle deck sheeted with 3/32 wood. I plan on making a set of templates tomorrow for the fuse sides, formers, etc. I am also going with a 2 1/4" TT spinner, instead of going with the stock 2" spinner per plans.
I framed a super kaos fuse today and finished sanding another project, which I will also be fiberglassing over the next few days. So I guess I got a lot going on. But I plan of focusing on the Curare over the next few days.
stay tuned... it's about to get dusty : )
