sig wunder / first build
Well folks, after assembling a few arfs, re-kitting and rebuilding a few planes I think I'm ready to start from a kit. Flyin buddy gave me a sig wunder kit he had laying around. starting the build tonite. Have one allready I bought here, destoyed, rebuilt and I love it. Flys fast (O.S 25 10/6 prop), flys slow ,harriers if enough wind. Chases my friends gremlins all over the sky. Building this for my son who will hopefully solo in next few months. (he's 6)
Well, got to go c.a my fingers together.

RE: sig wunder / first build
If you get time document the build on this thread as I've been thinking about getting a Wunder and would be interested in seeing the build process...
Not that I expect it to be too difficult...

RE: sig wunder / first build
Just a quick picture. No problems yet.[sm=spinnyeyes.gif] Any ideas on servo/ rec. combanations? I have all futaba stuff in my other planes. My other wunder has full size (127f/3004) equipment. Any good small futaba that you guys use?Well, back to lhs for some fuel (gallon a week, OMG), and sand paper.

venom,
I totally understand about sanding outside. I take all my sanding out side, and I do it on my own too. Balsa dust goes EVERYWHERE!!!!! Unless you have a dedicated shop that is sealed from the rest of the house sanding outside is a good idea.

RE: sig wunder / first build
I would think anything with at least 20 oz. of tourqe would be fine. I am running two micro cirrus servos for the throttle and evevator and a standard 148 for the ailerons. I going to use a 3108 for each aileron on my next one. This will free up room for a full size receiver in the fuse. I have a micro Cirrus receiver in the one I fly right now, and as I was looking over the AMA stuff on the fence at the feild I read that the freq. I am on 27.195 is subject to CB interference. Since our field is within a 1/4 mile of an active mine where CB's are used alot, I dont think I want to keep useing that there. I really cant believe that I havent had any problems yet.
