Re: Sig Kougar( modified)
I considered using 3 mm balsa sheeting for the fuselage. But after some consideration, I realised it would add about 150 grams, a lot more work, and Corro would work fine
Plus, if I don't use some corro, it would be OoC

Haha.
Try to guess.
Heres a clue. It has reference to the context
As soon as I saw Rai sahebs post, I began waiting to see who would be the first of many puzzled members to seek clarification

Re: Sig Kougar( modified)
Wing is held down by dowels in front, and bolts at the back. Before gluing in the formers I fixed the Dowels, as later there would be no place for the drill once the fuse was assembled

A part of life
Not dependent so much on quantity of models, but on how they are stored, and how long they remain idle without being flown

Re: Sig Kougar( modified)
Need to make a balsa piece for the lower fuselage front.
Supposed to be carved out of a 1"block, I fabricated one instead by gluing strips

Wing tips made
Original design suggested carve out of a 1 1/2"X 1 1/2"square bock. I chose to make a fabricated (built-up) tip
