Thank you for the link. Very interesting.
Yes, I intend to paint the model. The scheme will loosely be based on Lothar von Richthofen's Fokker Dr.1 Triplane.Looks like a nice kit, and I like the added strength of the interlocking pieces. You have plans to paint it?
I recently built the original Estes Flying Jenny, still doing some glide trimming on it.
Good work!
I use CA to hold components in place, like when I put a triangle next to two parts, making sure they are at 90 degrees. While the CA adheres quickly, it sometimes does not travel far enough into the wood. The epoxy is for added strength.Why epoxy fillets on a wood-and-paper model? Doesn't that add extra weight to a glider that wants to be as light as possible?
