New Twinkle Plans Arrive!...
The latest updated plans for the Twinkle have arrived. These include some minor corrections and improvements to the design and updates for the instructions to make them clearer.
The new depron version of the plans also arrived. These depron plans were developed from scratch with just the outer dimensions of the original as consideration. All the parts are made specifically for the depron build and as such create the exact same plans as the balsa version in an aerodynamic sense. ...you can also build a balsa/depron hybrid from the balsa plans. By using depron for the fuselage and tip floats, you get a plane with the raw builders charm of the balsa build, with the durability of the depron (the depron can take a lot of knocks about the fuse and tip floats without creating leaking problems). The plan sets are available from my site... http://keyboardmonkey.com/twinkle . |

wow, never checked my blog for reply comments... I suppose I should have
andrewwells13... oh yes, she flies. ...and for videos, my site used to allow directory browsing, which I have to get back turned on... but until then, here are some links... twinkle_01.mov twinkle_02.mov twinkle_03.mov twinkle_04.mov twinkle_05.mov twinkle_inverted.mov twinkle_land_01.mov twinkle_snow_01.mov twinkle_snow_02.mov twinkle_snow_03.mov twinkle_snow_04.mov twinkle_water_01.mov twinkle_water_02.mov twinkle_water_03.mov twinkle_water_04.mov twinkle_water_05.mov ...most of the movies aren't great as it's hard to get the videographer to come out and play, but you should be able to get the idea |
