Taylorcraft 1016mm

Taylorcraft BC-12 in 1946 was a lightweight two-seater sports-wing American company Taylorcraft. A striking similarity to Piper (at first glance differ fully kapotovaným Continental engine 65 HP) is not accidental, since CG Taylor was the designer of machines E-2 Cub, which was the model that preceded Piper at the legendary J-3 Cub.

Designers of American companies DUMAS Aircraft is the ideal machine for modelers who already has at least basic experience in building small models powered by rubber or piloting gliders and RC model controlled rudder and elevator. You will improve in the building "žbrdličkové" skeleton of the fuselage and wings, paper coating and painting - it's due to highly preprocessed laser-carved works like clockwork.

RC kit semiscales American sports high wing aircraft designed for electric propulsion. The model is simple but classic balsa structure in Rozsyp with laser carved wooden parts, scale accessories made of vacuum-molded plastic parts drawn by plastic injection molding and metal. The hull is constructed of conventional technologies minimaketářskou sides of balsa wood glued beams that connect polopřepážkami and bars in the lattice frame. The resulting shapes get stuck after several additional stringers. The wing is a classic design from the spars and ribs, tail out of balsa wood strips and laser-carved parts. Minor "tweaks" is making the peripheral parts of the tail and end arches wings of balsa wood strips laminated wet. You get so easily surprisingly strong and lightweight parts - without the use of carbon! Drawings necessary templates again refer to the instructions. The whole model can drag the paper supplied in the kit or a suitable lightweight iron sheets with little shrinkage, such as Airspan or Litespan.

Taylorcraft is designed to drive a small DC motor with gear - e.g. GWS drive unit, which is drawn on the plan. Nowadays probably choose small AC motor - in this case you will have to redesign the motor mount (insert new motor mount from 2 mm birch plywood), but it should not pose a serious problem. For relaxed flying just class motor AXI 2208, and two cells Li-poly 800 mAh. "Namotorování" We recommend overdoing it - it's a park-flyer, not a rocket.

Kit includes: laser carved balsa parts, balsa wood beams, vacuum-molded parts (bonnet ...), clear plastic film to "glazing" cab, steel strings on chassis and other small parts, lightweight foam wheels, colored lining paper sheet of stickers , construction plan.
