Hi all!
thank you again for the kind words!
I wanted to show you some update. The first one are the supports for the engine, they are 3d printed, and I have already put some paint on it, so I don't know if you can see the details very well, but I am very happy with it and the bolts tourned out very sharp... Indeed it took me 3 runs before getting it right, but I think it is ok now...
I'll upload some more pictures as of the completed engine section.
Then I printed the ribs for the wings, I fear the plans I am using don't have the right prophile and they also come out a little longer then it should have been, but I'll live with that (but I modified a bit the design on the PC)
Lastly, as this will be a "multimedia build", I started the fusolage. It is made the old way: wood beam and monofilament for rigging. The auxiliary tank is 3d printed.
but then, the cat jumped on the table, wanting to get out. I moved to open the window and struck the tripod, my camera fell and... well... have a look...
I am not going to repeat here the world that I shouted at the cat, the window, the Heavens and myself...
let's say that now that I am more calm and I can tell the truth and admit that the fusolage was not perfecltly suqare, so this is a good opportunity to amend my previus errors... and get a laught out of it !!
ciao
Edo
