Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

I'll need to find figure C on sheet 2.

 

[dhal22]

Nothing more than just as needed I think. So would I put negative influence on the horizontal stab?

 

[dhal22]

An odd straight edge but I needed long and flexible to layout the side fuse stringers.

Draw a line on the plans from the center of the leading edge to the center of the trailing edge. Measure down to the end points to the center of thrust. Use the difference divided by root length and take the arctan of that number, that is the wing incidence as measured by the Robart incidence meter. Based on the drawing A and B being equal has nothing to do with the setting the wing incidence with a Robart incidence meter.

 

[dhal22]

Rear wing support is locked in at the 'B' height.

 

[dhal22]

Likewise the front wing spar mounting point. Locked at the 'A' dimension........ Wing incidence cannot be adjusted unless I differ from plans.

OK I get it. I'm guessing you set the wing to zero by changing the angle of the fuselage then set to stab to zero?

Yes, at the moment.

 

[dhal22]

Decided against silver soldering the new cross braces. Buried screws in Hysol and clamped. They will support each other laterally so I think I'm good.

Hard to get the camera to focus where you want.......
