Fuselage:
As our every fuselage, this fuselage is also made with aerodynamical shape with smooth transitions. Again, all parts are laser cut out of balsa and avio plywood.
The fuselage is reinforced on strategic spots with selection of material which gives it more strength.
The fuselage is adapted for the F5L version, which means it has a built-in firewall on which a 30 mm diameter spinner is mounted.
Canopy is designed in a way that there is enough space to easily manipulate with all components in the fuselage, allowing the battery to be inserted and connected easily, improving usability on the field.
To facilitate and optimize the installation of components in the fuselage, we made two canopies. One on the upper side in which the motor, ESC, batteries and receiver are installed, and the other canopy is on the lower side under the center of gravity of the model in which the servo motors are installed.
The canopy has a mechanism with magnet for easier closing and making sure that it will not fall off during flight.
The tappered carbon tailboom is made from several carbon types. Materials are strategicaly oriented, so the boom has maximum strength and minimum weight.
Carbon tailboom has predrilled holes for mountint the rudder/elevator which contain carbon rods.
Tail:
The tail is also designed having aerodynamics in mind. It is a construction of laser cut balsa components.
If needed, there is an option to reinforce the elevator with carbon rectangular rod for stiffness.
Horizontal stab/elevator is tied to the tailboom via pylon which has a built-in nut so the tail can be dissasembled for easier transport.
Vertical fin has pre-prepared carbon pins which are inserted into drilled tailboom and is easily tied to the fuselage.
Carbon tailboom has predrilled holes for mounting the rudder/elevator which contain carbon rods.
Rudder / Elevator is detachable for easy maneuvering and transport.
We used A-tested resin, certified for aeroplane construction for all parts made od composite material.
Note: You can also order foil for model covering. We only use the highest quality Oralight foil from the German manufacturer Lenitz Prena Oracover Oralight.
