Title: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: topalle on April 27, 2014, 10:50:42 AM I am building a Learjet right now for the Sweepstakes.
Bottom part of wing done with coro. Given enough support. Top part wil probably be made of foam board. So will the fuselage be For pictures, I don't know when power will come back.I'll post as soon as power is back. Technical Specs. Wingspan 36" Wing material coro, foamboard Title: Re: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: topalle on April 27, 2014, 03:25:43 PM Here I come with the pics
Wing is done... Title: Re: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: topalle on April 28, 2014, 01:17:08 PM No response?
Title: Re: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: topalle on April 28, 2014, 01:31:22 PM The Scale factor is
1:14.5 Wingspan is 91.44 cm Length of fuse required is about 122 cm The weight of complete wing at present is 200 grams. Aimed weight of fuselage to be at 250 grams with all mixture of materials. Tail weight to be a max 100 grams Total empty weight target 550 grams. AUW target 800-900 grams... What should be the ideal size of edfs for this model?

Will watch this thread with great interest :) Title: Re: Post by: sanjayrai55 on April 28, 2014, 01:35:39 PM How to respond. You are creating a hangar full of incomplete models :(
Complete to the point of maiden, else none are eligible for the sweepstakes Yes, the models seem innovatively put together, but the proof of the pudding, as the sage said, is in the eating If it is because you don't have electronics yet, that is really unfortunate. Most of your builds seem airworthy Title: Re: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: topalle on April 28, 2014, 01:39:13 PM I am borrowing some elctronics from fellow modellers. By the end of may, as my paernts promised, I must be able to get two models airborne..
Title: Re: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: topalle on April 28, 2014, 01:42:13 PM How to make the wing tips?
??? Title: Re: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: yash10896 on April 28, 2014, 02:06:11 PM didn't got you??
Title: Re: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: topalle on April 28, 2014, 06:03:48 PM i mean the things that are called sharklets
Title: Re: Scratch built Learjet for RCI Sweepstakes 2014 Post by: rohitgupta322 on April 28, 2014, 06:21:50 PM Winglets are unnecessary for a model of this size. If, however, the purpose is to keep a scale look, you could extend the spar by a tiny bit and then stick an externally cut winglet with a slot in between so that you can attach it to the spar.
