Default RE: The Rocket

....well, I bought 3 pieces of 1/4"x 3"x 48" light balsa to remake the tail feathers. The plan
is to shape them the same as the tail on a Patriot, of which I have a kit in the box around
here somewhere. The tail feathers are of poor design on this plane IMO. I might brace the
stabs as well, just for over-kill.

I don't think this plane will be real fast....but it will be a terror on the vertical up lines.

FBD.
