Who is building what for 2015?
« on: October 28, 2014, 12:46:29 PM »
It's this time of the year again, where we spend more time in the workshop fixing the stuff we broke this year, and building new models for the next season.

So, what's on your worktops?  :D

Phew! :shock:  Them’s is big wings Fred.

At my place this is the model that has taken me 10 months to get to the present stage, (working on it little at a time) so I might have her ready to fly by Christmas (2015) :roll: .  It’s a 1.8mtr low wing (with nothing to hold while launching but a very narrow plastic belly-pan), V tail. with full length ailerons

I don’t like building this model. The instructions are pants :!:  and the pictures in the construction manual are just as useless. :evil:  Basically I’ve given up on the instructions and I’m building it the way I ‘think’ it should go together. :?:  Hopefully it’ll fly!

Oh!…..it’s called a Solange by the way.



Other than that,……it depends what Santa brings me.....(I think it might be made of foam with a full house wing.....I think :wink:  )

I'll test out your instructions Johnny  :D
