Default RE: Eindeckers anyone

Hi everone. Let me chime in with my 2 cents. My biggest issue with the BUSA lit is the outline of the cowl. Most of the rest of the kit a a glance seems semi scale. Fixing the cowl would requre a lot of work. but Abu is more qualified to speak about that than I am. One thing I have learned, is that it very often takes more effort to redesign someone else's work than to design and build from scratch.

Now, after having said all that. BREGUET I am really intruiged by your wing warping!! I have toyed with the idea for wing warping on my SR eindecker. Can you give me any other info? I know it will require a redesign of the undercarriage as well as the wings. I don't want to sabotage this thread so perhaps you could contact me by e-mail.I have the Proctor plans for a scratch build but I wanted to use a gas engine and ther would be no room for a dummy engine without redesigning. This alternative seems to be a lot less effort.

Here are some shots of it.
