Foamy trainer-ish something or other

Well with nothing on the build table I decided I needed a challenge.

 

2 Rules:

1. No plans. (well if you call those scribbles under the ribs plans then you need help like me haha)

2. Only use scrap and parts I had in my shed.

 

And here she is.. not the best looking gal at the ball but she's my gal none the less! Gota love depron so easy to work with. All up this took about a week of fiddling in the evening when time permitted. It was such a fun and simple plane to build and really reminded my of what makes this such a great hobby.. with a bit of patients and head scratching u can turn scrap in to something fun!

Thanks Sally, Maiden is this arfternoon :)

Never realy bothered sheeting the underside with these little foamies.. Perhaps I might at some point just to see how it effects the flight characterists. I have built a few foam wings over the years using this method and airfoil and they have always performed well. There is a CF spar and CF strip on the leading and trailing edge to keep it ridgid. Should fly nice and slow just the thing for a lazy sunday afternoons flying :)
