Hello, here we go with another build thread of that plane, but with veneered, foam core wings. I've lost an amount of time trying to figure out why the software I did use until now refused to work on a new Windows 11 PC. The only help from the programmer was to swap to another, older PC. I was even prone to upgrade to the new version, but guess what? It didn't work either. I finally decided to dig into FCNX developed by Renaud Iltis and I discovered a jewel among the few softwares available. What a greater, modern and cheaper tool! So I'm up and running again. First cut went well at first attempt. Ok, I already knew kerf and temperatures values for those materials. Cores and sheetings ready for vacuum bagging. Cores are in XPS Jackodur. Sheetings are 0.6mm obeche. There will be a fiberglass layer too.

Hello gang, rumors says that there could be a Lundy trip in 2025. I thought then to propose a mass build, for a PSS plane to be build by anyone interested and flown in a (big) flock during next Lundy trip. Plane should be: ~1/10, around 1m wingspan WWII fighter of interesting, unusual design (means avoiding Spitfire, Me109, P51 etc.) any other interesting originally powered plane cheap, around £50-100.- for a base kit kit proposal is a fiberglass moulded fuselage, wing foam cores (or already veneered), stabilizer maybe other extra parts (servo frames etc.) ... I already have a couple in mind, but am open to proposals. Anyway I'm not doing a poll, I prefer to choose something not requiring too much effort in design and especially doable for everyone. Plans are to design and build a prototype first and see how it goes. Then I did think about several practical aspects, but before to dig into them let see if there is any interest. Ric

Hello, I start here a build log of the ribbed wing version of that PSS plane. I would like to keep it clean and stick to the topic. For general questions I would prefer using the main thread here. In the case someone will build one too, it would be of course nice to share experiences here. I will try to answer questions related to that build and welcome other suggestions too. Ric
