Default RE: Doubledog's building a luftboot

Chugging away, slowly but surely.

Got the rudders built. As Mr Cajun Gator said, I went the simplest route & used hinges. Fins are 15 inches x 2.75.
Engine installed and moved as far forward as possible.
Reinforcement in the bottom around the engine as well.

Try to overlook the stern. I'll laminate another peice on the back to clean it up a little.


Ideas needed now as to connect the fins together and for a control hook-up.
Also, does anyone have an extra 14x6 laying around? Don't really want to drop an order at T-ower just for this. The one thats on there now is a 14x8 I had laying around.
