Lame name I know, subject to change, but it's gotta be called something.
While rehabbing my knee, since I can't get out to the flying circle, I've been working on several new projects; this is one.
30" span, 200 sq. in. area, 4.5 oz. as it sits, shooting for under 8 RTF. I plan to power it with a Norvel .061.
Nose picture, #8, shows provision for engine offset--wedges cut from the legs of a spring clothespin. Very hard stuff, no crushing here!
Next 3 pics, my over/under adjustable LO guides, just in case anyone's curious.
Next 3 pics, my tipweight box made from the neck/lid of a water bottle, ditto.
Last pic, copper wire-laced LG, a little lighter than the bolts-and-straps I've used in the past.
Pretty much ready to cover and paint; thought I'd get some pictures of the bones while I could.
