YES ! Electric Starters are Bad Enough
, But putting them IN the Aeroplane
.
. Oh well . At Leastt they Are Flying . And no ones done
a neuclear powered one jet .
Tho I think some drones are Solar , or solar assist . Id like to see a Rubber Powered F2B model .
Probly need several motors that engage sequentially as each claps out . BUT ; the potential for an ultra light calm weather rubber F2B job must exist .
Just no ones gout the nouse to build one .
Been Looking at P-39s for centuries Gerald . Apart from the center section ' kink ' which I think could be ignored , unless your a scale stunt buff
which complicates / prolongs the build . As the lines are straightforward , if one moves away from the ' bulky ' version , it should work well .
Over Emphasising the Nose ( making the spinner bigger ) gets things flowing , asthetically & makes construction easier .
Particularly if you dont mind partially flat sides , theres enough commonality to almost have a ' standard ' W W II Fuselage ,
with additions / deletions / alterations to F & F decks & canopy positions , to have ' one size fits all ' , as a Std Construction .
2 3/4 or 3 in spinner , with the fuse only 1/4 or 3/8 wider , and they all look the same , apart from the bumps , and curly bits at the ends .
diheadral starts to come into it tho , and tecnically a P-39 is FLAT between the air intakes . Flat Sheeting underneath between where the
undercarrage doors are there would pretty well cover that aspect , though . Assuming youve got a notch of diheadral .
