The "TINY" is another our actual project. It uses paper sheeted foam wing
with newly designed airfoil shown on notes page.
550g heavy model with .15 engine easily flies full F2B pattern on 17m lines. I was
surprised with its flying ability. I can say it is much easier to fly full pattern than
with full size F2B model (unfortunately only in calm condition). I recommend it to all
those who want to learn F2B pattern.
On bottom of page is table with detailed data giving all dimensions as well as some
numbers helping to trim the model before flying. All is in SI units.
Here is example of 2 models differing in look only. Both use paper/foam wing and 4mm
thin balsa flaps, stab and elevator. First one uses old cross scavened Os Max .15 with 9x4
prop and clunk tank - good choice for beginners.
Second, nice looking is the same layout, just better finished.
