Default RE: PERIGEE Prototype Kit Build

ORIGINAL: BobHH

Nick, my original DeBolt kit which I based my version on has the all 1/4 balsa vertical. It is in 4 different pieces and the rudder is 2 separate pieces. I went with a 1 piece rudder and a 3 piece vertical all 1/4 inch wood. See picture. The magazine article version has the built up tail. I think using 1/4 balsa would OK. Hopefully if my order get in I can finish up the wing this weekend.

Wow, I didn't realize the DeBolt kit was simplified. The PassTime has the original curved ribs. Since I have them, I will use them, but if it comes out warped, it is good to know the slab is original.
