RE: DeHavilland Mosquito
the wing is made up of 1/8" balsa ribs and a root rib of ply, these are pinned to the plan and spars made up of 1/8" laminated balsa......these have been designed so that it's 3 ply up too rib 5..then 2 ply to rib 7 and then single to rib 13......ali wing joining tubes are also supplied, these are glued into the first 3 ribs...each rib having a ply ring to add strengh...the servo will exist in the scale position about mid way down the alerion....the mount will need some thinking about...so for now i've left this open....holes were drilled in to the ribs for servo wires...just behind the spar
3/8" balsa is added to the rear of the wing joining the flap area, 1/4" sheet is cut and glued to the alerion ribs...the mossie has quite long alerions....
top sheeting is then added...using 3/32"....the rear edge was reinforced with 1/64 ply let into the balsa...using a small sanding block against a rule to get it straight....
the wing panels go together quite quickly......did this one in a couple of hours today......will post more when i get to the next stage
