Bill, this method is shown on one of Windy's old construction video's, I'd send
you a copy but you'd already have a wing built by the time it's arrives from Australia

Hi Bill,

looks like we might have our own "building project MK11" !!
I too am building a Genisis 35, good minds thinks alike
The box method I've never used but it seems ok, I'll be using glass plate
surface and jig blocks (Tom Morris method) at this stage, read about the larger
Genisis 40 I think.....it was a kit from memory. The original version is what I'll
stick too.....though changing the fuzz is / was tempting but I'll leave it as is,
I wrote to Bob Hunt many moons ago about the G35 and my query was centered
on the type of stab section to use on this model ....nowdays, he mentioned
that his "Europa" shared some history with the G35 and to use a simiular geo -d
stab set up, this I'll do but keeping the thickness of the stab original, only other
changes in mind are 4" b -crank, extra fuze formers, traditional tail wheel (not
the orig) faired -in deal, motor wise I'll have a Frank Bowman OS 35 s that will
power it nicely.
Bill any hints or tips with your original G35 I'll gladly take aboard.
One thing I know is that this model flies well, many guys over the years give it the
thumbs up.

Ron.

Bill,

I agree with what you said earlier in the thread even though I will probably never compete seriously.  Building should be part of the competion.  Or, make a class for ARF/ARC.

You mentioned a competition "here."  Is that competition close to our area?

Hi Ron,
A follow up onthe Europa.  Robby wanted a piped plane more of the G-35 size.  Him and my son Aaron had become pretty good friends then.  We talked with Bob about the Europa back then, and it really is pretty much a redesigned G-35 set up for the pipe installation but styled more like Bob's Saturn.  The Europa even has the "narrow" fuselage in it's original design.  They used a soft mount that Bob was producing at the time.
Those planes are still good flyers, good enough for about anything less than a very top eschelon stunt meet.  Don't know if the "impression points" would compete with the larger "full bore" stunters of today.  How the airplane "presents" is a factor at the very top levels.  But, there does seem to be some "underground" interest in slightly smaller ships that present "larger".
