Scale Soaring UK

Followed by the AMT...

Now the rear end can be brought nearer to a conclusion...

Moving on now to the canopy frame...

Now for the wings...The Dart has two brass joiner boxes in the wing, one 16mm & one 13mm: each one sits under one set of the 5mm spars. It's always a good idea when epoxying in the second joiner to insert the blades and check that they are absolutely parallel...

Hi Chris, is the ply sheeting on the rear fuselage 1/64 or 1/32? I ask as I would have assumed 1/32 but it looks more like 1/64 to me from the colour in the photos.

No Andrew, that's 0.6mm, or 1/48th ply...

Ok, thanks, .6mm is a size I hadn't come across. I'm enjoying seeing this come together.

You can get 0.6 from SlecUK.

With the lower sheeting added, the wing can be laid on its jigging supports and the top sheeting glued in place....

Thanks Cliff, I've just had a delivery from SLEC too!
