Please?
On the fuselage, the bottom strut that begins at the tail, and ends up
at the front of the plane, is SPLICED... from BASS, to BALSA. I
assume that it is to ease the bending that's required. The balsa
continues on, and I don't know where it terminates....!
C-2 shows as a part to be attached...but is it to be attached to the
bottom balsa strut? Or does the front of the fuselage finish
without a 'CLOSING" piece, to be closed up when the two sides are
joined? Or better, what needs to be added before I un pin and lift
the fuselage side from the wax paper? Superimposing details upon
details makes it so difficult to visualize.
Also, I never noticed that the kit included just a few pieces of 3/16
Bass, but lots of 3/16 Balsa. So I built one side with all bass,
except for the balsa splice piece. Now I have to make the second side
the same way! Any MAJOR problem there? Why would they ever include
more Bass than Balsa???
Thanks so much! When I gain experience and finish this model
airplane, I might be in positiion to help others. And I will!
