BBloke Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 I was thinking P40 but my guess would be P47. Quote
1. DDz Quorum Pooka Posted March 22, 2008 1. DDz Quorum Posted March 22, 2008 I think he means a F6F, that would be my guess too. Pooka Quote
Tonar Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 nothing fancy, just a little wing work done. wing = EPP foam spar = Spruce/carbon fiber Quote
1. DDz Quorum Pooka Posted March 28, 2008 1. DDz Quorum Posted March 28, 2008 Interesting, keep us informed along the way. Pooka Quote
Tonar Posted March 29, 2008 Author Posted March 29, 2008 sure it will, I am in the infant stages of building, the control surfaces will be made of Balsa and added a litle later. Quote
Tonar Posted March 29, 2008 Author Posted March 29, 2008 here is a video of us last year flying on the Continental Divide @ 12,000+ feet. Quote
Logos Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 ~S~ Tonar Man, you know how to have fun. That looks like a blast and to have a handful of mates to join in must make for some great fun. Good fortune on your project. Logos Quote

GreyKnight Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Amazing work Tonar... but what loadout are you going to fit to it? Quote
Enforcer57 Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Awww, that's eeeasy; all you gotta do is get a piece of styrofoam and carve away anything that doesn't look like an F6F. Tonar, I knew you had a sense of the dramatic when you attacked us in those B-25s two misns back. I see why nobody sits in that chair. Quote
Tonar Posted April 8, 2008 Author Posted April 8, 2008 OK, the wing is finished except for servo installation and paint Finished both halves and put reinforced bidirectional strapping in key areas Now to apply the covering. Quote
