Designers freely flying mock sports high wing aircraft designed for propulsion by rubber; instructions and schedule allow you to build a model as well as a free flight with a powered combustion engine 0,33ccm.
The model is a classic balsa structure in Rozsyp with laser carved wooden parts, scale accessories made of vacuum-molded plastic parts and plastic drawn by injection molding. The hull is constructed right minimaketářskou technology partitions a plurality of longitudinal enabling faithfully reproduce the rounded shapes. Built in two stages - thanks to "split" in the vertical plane stand directly on the countertop first half of the fuselage, and then to her "dolepíte" second half. This ensures that even complicated shapes hull stand straight and symmetrical, without needing any special preparations. Since it is a small - albeit relatively simple - a model, you should already have prior experience with classical building and test-flying models powered by rubber.
Musketeer is also suitable for conversion to a RC model with electric drive - although the construction plan of variants of this offer, for more experienced modeller would not be a big problem.
Kit includes: laser carved balsa parts, balsa wood beams, vacuum-molded parts Scale (bonnet ...), plastic propeller shaft and head, rubber volume rubber (5x1mm), plastic wheels, steel strings on chassis and other small parts, plastic wheels, lining paper sheet wet decals, construction plan.

Then, lubricate it with castor oil (sold in pharmacies) or silicone grease to lubricate fishing lines (available in most stores fishing equipment). After flying harness with the model, remove and store it in a sealed plastic bag. Lubricated rubber volume unfolds smoothly and with less friction - provides more power and last longer. The new bundle is also advisable to first fetch - for the first 2-3 years to film only 80-100 rpm, only then can safely shoot more.
