RE: Scratch building 105

Hi Sam,

The arm length will only have to be about 3.5 inches tip to tip. 180 degrees will give you the 3 inch plus for flap movement. Where the nyrods connect to the arm be sure to cut room in...

Hi Sam,

After looking at a few pictures of the front doors it appears that they used a very simple method to do the doors.

RE: Scratch building 105

Sam,

Maybe this diagram will help you figure out how to attach the gear doors to the strut. The attachment to the strut may have to be a sliding attachment. Lots of trial and error to get it to...

RE: Scratch building 105

Hi Sam,

My experience with CF cloth is that it does not take on small curves well. Tends to want to straighten itself out during curing. As for the strands seperating, the strands (called tow)...
