Default RE: Nanorare Build Thread

One comment I should make upon reflecting on the plans posted is that there is nothing inherently assymetric about the Nanorare+ (78%) plans. They simply represent a ~78% scaling of the original. What makes the model assymetric is the use of smaller wings and stabs (74% scale) on a larger fuselage (78% scale). This change to the basic layout of the scaled Tipo makes the g-Nanorare (glow version) align more closely with the crop of 20 size MK designs which typically exhibit longer fuses than the American and European designs of the period. The classic example would be the Aurora which is considerably larger than the Curare and Tiporare yet retains the sleek long wings. The Deception on the other hand is more akin to the squarer designs of today showing wide shorter wings and stabs and a comparatively long fuse.
