Micro Lunak - With Plan!
« on: June 08, 2015, 13:07:44 PM »
Or the twin brother of the Micro Quark, but with a scale fuselage, both are sharing the same set of wings. If you have build the Micro Quark, just build the fuselage, and "2" models in one :)

Specs:
Wingspan: 1236mm
Lenght: 813mm
Profiles: SB96V - VS
All wood construction.

Nothing difficult in the build, just the wings!
Those ribs are tiny, but if you take your time, nothing too much difficult.
After that, the fuselage is a basic rectangular box in the shape of a Lunak...

A few photos of the build:







And the 99% finished product (would like to add more stickers :) ) ready for the first flight:







The full step by step build log, plan in A4 pages to download are all on the dedicated page:

So the wife is letting you build models in the house now? :wink:

What have you been promising her in return???  :roll: (You little rascal you.)

Nice build Fred, soon you’ll be building them as well as the professionals. :clap:

Having said that,.... the wing LE looks like it has been made up of lots of smaller lengths of carbon dowel? May be the photo has pixelated a little.

Little Keith
Try not to run out of airspeed, altitude and ideas....... all at the same time.

Thanks Keith :)
Yep, entirely built on the dining room table :) So I could build and keep an eye on the girls playing in the garden.. This is my excuse :)

Well, it does look better in photos than in real life I have to admit. The LE is a full lenght piece of carbone tube. Must be the photo I think  :?:

Just made the final touches on the 2 metres version of the Lunak.
Using the same wing platform as the Quark 2M, if it can fly half as good, I will be an happy man! :)

More to come as the first one is being built  :D

A fantastic looking Micro Lunak built from the kit!
This one, from Alain Darras (remember, he visited us in April).

Lovely model!!
