Just wanted to build something quick as I have not been able to build anything more impressive for a while. Dish of day is Nakki II. Which is translated easily to Sausage II. This has been briefly mentioned in this blog some time ago. See here.
This design uses ‘perussiipi’ which is basic wing manufactured by local vendor from styrofoam. I do dislike styrofoam, but in this case it is ok, as this is sort of ‘classic finnish modelling stuff’.
I will compile extremely short build log into this blog.
Parts and plans
Plan and parts removed from supports
Fuselage back part glued together
Motor support glued together, 2mm coctail sticks used as guides
Fuselage sides with their servo supports
Tail skid and rudder glued to fus. 2mm sticks again used as support
Front fuselage bottom glued together
Canopy structure assembled
top of canopy glued to place
Basic wings sanded lightly
Marking centerline of basic wing
I cut cardboard templates for cutting lightening openings.
Wing lightening openings done
Saved 9g !! so it is totally useless, although fun to make
Making groove for carbon flatrod
Carbon flatrod glued to place. I used masking tape to prevent smearing of glue
Wing is being supported using 3mm carbon flatrod.
It looks rather neat.
Wings assembled together
