VolkerR. Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I built this as a gift for my daughter who is a glider pilot. I won`t build another one. It brought me to the limits of my patience and abilities. The tensioners were made of 0.3mm steel rods, the steering cables were made of stretched sprue lines. Thanks for looking!

Timmas Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I have to say you've made a really lovely job of that even if it did take you to the brink. I hope your daughter treasures it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbay133 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Lovely model. Reminds me of flying the very similar Slingsby T.38 Grasshopper many years ago. Flying was actually a short hop in the school playing field. I never did manage to land on the cricket pitch. Thanks for sharing Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faraway Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Lovely build. You’re a braver man than I, to attempt that rigging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
