The SPAD seems easier and my guess will fly better too.

Post by: Dan Labine on July 21, 2008, 07:23:50 AM: Leester.. I'm sorry to say that I haven't got around to finishing the wings on the Fokker. The weather has been good so its on the back burner for now. What exactly do you want to see? The bellcrank mount is shown in my previous posts but the crank is not installed. I'm thinking of changing to a CLC(Tom Morris??) 3 inch bellcrank instead of the kit supplied one. The leadouts will go through a piece of spruce bushed with brass eyelets which is attached to the cabane struts. I was thinking of putting in an adjustable setup but I'm not sure it would be worth it. Hopefully I will get back to building it shortly..

Dan...
