Great-grandfather of today's ultralight produced from 1931 to 1937 the US firm Aeronca. One trainer and touring aircraft had a very simple structure of steel tubes coated canvas with steel wire reinforcement, twin drive ensured by 36 horses. Thanks to the excellent flight characteristics and advantages resulting from unusual hull design - with Aeronca is virtually impossible to make a hard landing because the pilot saw directly on the undercarriage wheels, and could very accurately predict an instant touchdown; beside the pilot was a place for the passenger, so that pupils could "lip-read" proper piloting - capable owners to fly solo after only five hours of training. Aeronca been widely imitated by amateur builders and airlines companies throughout the world - it is not bypassed Czechoslovakia, Be-60 "Bestiola" the company Benes-Mraz is a clear demonstration.
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 trainer and tourist 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 balsa wood beams, bulkheads and partitions forming a lattice frame. Any local curves get after sticking a large number of thin stringers. Due to the unusual shapes of the fuselage for the correct assembly of simple construction necessary medicine - drawing in scale 1: 1 for his fabrication found on the building plan. 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.
Aeronca is designed to drive a small DC motor with gear - e.g. powertrain GWS which is marked on the plan. Nowadays probably choose small AC motor - for relaxed flying with "half a motor glider" just-class motor AXI 2208, and two cells Li-poly 800 mAh. 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.
Kit includes: laser carved balsa parts, balsa wood beams, vacuum-molded parts (engine cover, canopy ...), 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.
