Default RE: Nanorare Build Thread

As a quick update, attached are the two fuse plans I intend to work from. The Nanorare+ assymetric plan shows the correct scale for the fuse but the root wing chord will be shorter by 0.5" with a max chord and radio bay length of 9.75" rather than 10.25". This, of course, leaves the radio bay section identical in length to that of the electric 74% Nanorare (symmetric scale) and provides the additional 1" of tail moment mentioned (the additional 0.5" is gained from the larger 78% scaling). Clearly, the third former (B) will be moved forward by 0.5".

Overall, the flying surfaces between the two models will be identical but the glow version will have an all around larger fuse. Although not quite there, this is leaning toward the current trend of over-square (longer fuses than spans) designs in F3A. Trickery [8D] will be required to keep the wing loading acceptable, particularly on the glow version.

Rafa, see, now you've got me thinking about this again!
