    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    I bet someone here knows. Nice work on the wing cores.

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    Now did I read that you put the glue of the core? Or was that another person? I spread the glue on the skins with a credit card just like epoxy, there sufficient amber color in the glue to assess coverage. If there are hard points in the core like servo rails and control horn hard points, I...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    The trim cable is shown on the following page. The elevator assembly is shown on page 26 and the left elevator has a boss of some sort where the pulley is mounted. Attached is a photo of the three view I'm working off as well as the service manual. It shows the pulley on the stab and I'm sure...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    That would make sense to me but the three view I'm working off shows different. Mounted to elevator would put the span wise cable run right over the hinge centerline. It will be a little tighter fit but I think it would work. Another revision may be it the works.

    Scale Stuka Ju87 100in wingspan

    Agreed, very nice. By the way what is that black wing leaning against the wall? Looks stealth?

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Finished the trim tab installation, made larger pulleys with deeper grooves. The sliding servo mount is shown as well. Decided to mix with servo with the elevator trim tab rather than boost mode. In either mode the cables remained on with elevator travel 30 degrees in each direction so I'm...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Working on the trim tab pull-pull set up. Using the three view and photos collected tried to duplicate the full scale, was pretty sure it wouldn't work as hoped and darn if I wasn't right. The top pull passes through the elevator to a pulley on the bottom of the trailing edge of the stab. The...

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    The system I use is very simple, vacuum pump with bleeder valve and gauge, fuel tubing, 2 mil drop cloth and cheap caulk make the bag. Pump runs continuously while glue is curing set at 5" hg. Pump was bought at flee market 35 years ago, $15. The largest wing was bagged was 8'. Haven't done...

    The trim tab is cut free and the piano hinge fitted. Need to hinge the elevators and make the control horn for the tab.

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    As part of moving the servos forward decided to make a new stabilizer and elevators, needed to make revision to elevator to accommodate the pull-pull anyway. The resulting parts weight a little more than 3 ounces less than the original. The original is on the right side. Also found the micro...

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    I would shim the two outboard ribs while the remainder of the aileron is flat. Here is a photo of a BUSA Super Cub wing, same as the Cub except add flaps. The aileron is flat to it's edge, yours is a little different. I think I would build it flat and add the two remaining ribs while inverted...

    Working on the radio installation, both receivers are located under the back seat, connected the RB 10 redundancy bus located in the front of the plane under the dash. The elevator and rudder servos were relocated under the dash and are accessible by removing the boot cowl if needed. The...
