If i see closely both upper and lower are cut same size which is y the upper coro is bit small or it was planned that way? Any aileron in this plane? Title: Re: "2016 - Sweepstakes" Biplane Pitts S1 Post by: topalle on December 04, 2016, 08:06:22 PM nice build! how did you color the coro?
Title: Re: "2016 - Sweepstakes" Biplane Pitts S1 Post by: rastsaurabh on December 04, 2016, 10:07:15 PM Vinyl stickers
Title: Re: "2016 - Sweepstakes" Biplane Pitts S1 Post by: taitil on December 05, 2016, 05:28:08 PM Thank u topalle rastsaurabh..
Sanjay sir, the ribs are made from 2mm balsa. And use 2mm coro. In first wing, i used double 2mm balsa in middle and in second wing, light weight 12mm aluminium rode. Total weight for two wings with two 9gm servos is 295gm. Not vinyl, I use regular 2 inch sticky tape for colour. See closely. Yes Saurabhbhai i cut same size coro. I put servos in lower wing for Aileron.

Yes sir, when you first told me that this is Challenging build, i thought it would not. But i realise that this was really challenging build. And now i m very happy to made this. I made little mistaken in lower wing. I used very thin balsa stick. So wing gone little bend while flying. Now i give it stick for supports and make it strong. |
