Oh what the heck. Count me in.
I stopped building fairly abruptly in the middle of last year - a lot of life events got in the way. I was hoping to rebuild my motivation this year, and complete the only-just-started DH88 (13thsquadron design - a beauty) that’s still packed away. But I read this thread and found myself planning a design without intending to, so I guess I’ll do a WW1 plane and THEN finish the DH88. Unexpected, but any motivation is good, I suppose.
I’m in the UK so I can’t get to FF2022, but you can put me down for a Sopwith Pup. I’ll try and fly it at the same time as the FF dawn patrol is airborne - lunch time for me, I’m guessing? I thought a Pup would be impossible to balance, but having seen how Josh Orchard did the battery in his FVM Ö1 Tummelisa (mounted vertically on the back of the firewall - clever!) made me think maybe it can work. Only one way to find out.
If anyone needs me I’ll be on Outerzone looking at old balsa plans...
Laterz.
