@aeronut 2008: Great! Thank You!! Do you have more technical drawings from the Hotspur? Maybe a view from above? Or from the wings?

@OneEightBit: If I use rib 33 for splitting the fuselage the front section will be too long. Then I just can build the plane in scale 1:5.2 I have a limit for 1.5m for the fuselage parts so splitting the fuselage in the middle (rib 26) will not be scale, but the best solution.

Kind regards,

:):) Looks like this thread will not sleep. :):)

OneEightBit: Of course I would like to get your technical drawings. Please sent a PM or a mail to [email]jmoors@gmx.de[/email] regarding the costs.

I built a couple of “normal” model planes. So I jump directly into the cold water and built a large scale plane. If it doesn’t work I will go on trying until it works.:D

Secondly, why not use the same transport joints as the original aircraft? I would imagine emulating the stub-wing into the monocoque would give good strength and the transport joint at frame 33 should make it small enough to get into your car.

I have neither anyclues regaring any transport joints nor do I know where frame 33 is. Is there a plan available where I can see this? I’m still searching for a technical drawing from a Hotspur MKII.

Guys, I love you and I really appreciate your help and your comments!!!

Kind regards from rainy Brueggen,
