RE: 1/3 Scale Nieuport 11
Eindecker Pilot........I think we have all done that at one time or another.......but you shouldn't be telling stories on yourself. Your friends already do enough of that!
The next step is to join the tail together......find some balsa, cut a wedge that matches, lather it up with 6 minute epoxy, clamp it together and wait. It is still in the holding fixture and over the center line - make sure it stays that way.
Once that sets up, I added the the lite ply to the bottom of the rear fuse. I used thick CA for this procedure......it is quick and bonds well to basswood and lite ply. This piece holds the tail skid and also adds lots of stiffness to the rear fuselage.
Now I have another fuse, ready for the top and bottom cross pieces. Diagonals will be added - these will true up the fuse if needed and also add torsinal stiffness. Once I get that finished, it will be Rhonda's turn on her fuselage. Stay tuned.
