Hi all,
I'm new here, and am keen to learn from the many experienced builders that kindly share their knowledge. I have been building some indoor planes along the lines of penny planes, and smaller to fly in my living room, and I think I am getting better at building light.
Seems like a lot of it is selecting the most suitable wood for the job! ( and practice !! )
I have recently built my second Hangar Rat, and have a question about the expected weight. Is it usually quoted as without the rubber?
The plane complete is 6.4 grams, and the rcommended rubber weighs an additional 2.5 grams. I have not seen any mention of the expected weight of hangar rats, so I don't know what to expect. I did put a bit of effort into selecting the best wood for this plane, but have not been able to find any weight anywhere? Anyone got some experience with Hangar Rats? I know they are pretty crude compared to the creations that you guys can come up with, but I am hoping that I can have a plane that will be somewhat competitive in a fly off at an indoor meet.
Thanks for any assistance.
Tim
