Cardinal take apart

(1/1)

What is the status of the Cardinal take apart you were working on.
I'm still very interested.

Bob Zambelli:
Hi, Cat - I am putting the final touches on the first prototype ARF version of the CARDINETTE. It should be ready next week. I've called out a number of changes and forwarded them to China. The pre-production prototype should arrive any day now. If all is well, we will probably offer it as ARF and ARC.

I am also doing the plans in Autocad such that a laser-cut kit may be offered.

Because of the added cost and complexity, we have decided to forgo the take-apart feature, at least for the time being. Remember, the plane is quite small and will fit in most cars.

When I do re-address the take-apart issue I plan to make it really compact. The wing will split in two for a really small package.

Unfortunately, I've done very little with model aviation in the last few months due to my concentrating on the completion of my new home in South Carolina. I have began moving "stuff" down there and it's really my priority.

By the way, the Cardinette is really a fine flying little plane. In the right hands, it should be a fine competitor.
