O.K. Things are coming along. I have a new set of plans drawn up and a full, step by step instruction sheet written. I also have a Bill of Materials, a required tools list, and recommended equipment list written.
I plan to build (to ready for covering) a Morphine based on these plans and instructions to make sure I haven't forgotten anything, and that everything fits together based on the plans. I will build a second Morphine that will be a little less complete to show the internal construction, and a set of parts for a third, showing the starting point and the wing sheeting process (although the instruction describe it too)
I will provide, here, in a couple of days, the Bill of Materials so those attending the build session on the 27th can have their wood purchased and ready to start. I'll have copies of the plans, wing cores, and instructions ready for the 27th. Note that in order to build the fuselage, you have to have your motor with you, or at least a motor that represents a typical motor. This is so you can roll a ply motor tube around the motor
If you'd like to get your plans early, so you can start cutting out the parts and build along with me at the build season, I can probably arrange to get them to you. I'll see if I can get copies made on my way to the MAAC AZM tomorrow.
I've created a system for mass producing cut wing cores and based on my first trial cut it seems to work very well, and the delicate little core is very accurate. I just need to find some time to set it up in my garage and start cutting. I'll have the cores ready for the build session on the 27th
One of my primary objectives with this planes was to create a smooth flying, sleek, racer that is quick and easy to build. I think you guys will have fun with the build.
