original Vector
« on: September 21, 2007, 12:31:18 PM »
Maybe Randy can answer this best,but I will throw it out there. I am building an original Vector with foam wings.It will be powered by a Stalker 51. Does the wing need a spar or not. I am not sheeting the whole wing. I will be using the Dixon kept foam technique. I realize I need to use a glass cloth reinforcement, but how much and how far out.                Thanks

HI Jim

If you are using the kept foam partial sheet method you will have to use a spar, and glass cloth around the center out past the fuse sides

Regards
Randy
