Default RE: Lambert kolibri

Well it seems that it will be harder to find another twin jet than it is to get a turbine engine,anyone know of a source that still has TJ's available.Hey Craig Dyer it's great to here first hand of the reliability of this unit, as for the TJ elevons I framed them out with balsa and covered with 1 1/2oz glass and carbon vial it totally changed them incredible rigidity.Did the layup in a vacuum bagging system made for food storage called Reynolds Handi-vac it's great for small parts and cost in the states 10$ pump included,large bags are 10" 9/16x11" 1/2.Some pics of the elevons and stab after glassing.
