RE: Magic
Done nothing yesterday as I got a full days flying in. First time in over 2 months, been really windy here.
Looking at my timber supply, I am short of ply, Will have to make more. I have plenty of 6mm but no 3mm. I have a lot of 1mm 5ply that I got many years ago. Just cut and layer to make what I need. May look at 2mm ply fot F4, will see how it feels when done.
Will use 2mm balsa for the sides, it will be a light model. With the reduction in size you can use 3" x 36" sheet for each side, no joins anywhere. With the turtledeck joined to the top of the fuse, and F2,3 &4 do not extend above the fuse sides the fuse can be built upside down to keep it straight and square, the turtledeck can be built seperatly and then added to the fuse.
Looking at the rudder V1 will need some thought, just something to think about while cutting and making up the ply.
Cheers
