Hi
Am a relative newbie but wanting to build ww1 warbirds and as they seem relatively simple/cheap thought I might have a go at some of the ones from this site
https://www.foamflying.com/rc-prop-planes.html
Was originally going to build the FT triplane/se5 but was looking for something a little more authentic/easy to build/quick/cheap
-they seem to use FT foamboard.
I know I'm a bit of a traitor advertising this on a FT website but just trying to get a semi accurate/cheap/easy to build ww1 warbird and they looked promising
They are rudder only but I reckon I could adapt the FT design so it at least has workable rear elevators a la FT triplane/se5
Wondered if anyone has built any of the ww1 ones and has any tips /hints
I have emailed old guy and he has been very helpful but he is probably getting sick of me bothering him!
Thanks
