Barnstormer Rib outline, Brodak kit?
« on: April 09, 2015, 11:21:04 AM »
Could someone please post a photo of a single Barnstormer rib from the current kit offered by Brodak?

Measurements would be nice also.

It would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I could come up with a GENUINE Guillow Barnstormer rib if that would help.

Paul,

Thanks, I'd like to see it.

Are the ribs the same as the Brodak kit?

I'm thinking of putting one together and all that is available is the Brodak kit. Unless there's another option?

The Brodak kit is OTS legal.

I'm sure the Guillow kit is also.

Sometimes changes do get made. I'd like a healthy airfoil.

C,
You can get the complete rib set from Brodak (Item#CLB-80RS,  $12 laser cut). The Barnstormer has a nice airfoil ~ 15%. See picture

Charles. I have an original Guillows Barnstormer kit, A mark 2  Barnstormer (the one with flaps and is Classic legal, but not OTS) kit and a Baby Barnstormer kit. Interested?

Ty,

Possibly with the Mark II, but in all honesty, I'm gearing up for OTS.

PM me on the Mark II. See if we can cut a deal.

Need graphics?   ;D
