I've been a bit caught up with the Beagle's friends in Graaf Reinet!
Graham is doing the wings, but he is away this week and will be at the DLG Nats in JHB next week..... So, I'll try and bag a set this weekend (Haven't done that in a while, and it will have wing joiners that I have never done before!) I cast a second fuz so I can do the internal sleeves and rudder hinging, That's about it for now! |

Where are all those buddy builders??? J Just wondering....... |

Hehehe
Didn't really expect any! So, left to my own devices, I made some carbon sleeves for the fuz and wings. Perhaps I should have done the wings 1st..... Easier to align! Anyway, they are set in the fuz with the rudder hinge cut! I still need to make a rudder wiper. The wing is reserved for the weekend! ( If all goes well!) |

Keep goin' Johann you're almost there
FWIW, I think the rear carbon rod could be a lot shorter, you really only need a pin length to keep the wing from rotating. Might be kinda hard to slide the wing onto two rods of that length, alignment would have to be perfect. Ref my Staaken biplane. |

It is of a hollow wing (not bagged) I'm sure you could adapt it by raking out the foam. On the other hand... It's pretty long, I'll post some pix! J Oh, and no beers either!
