Well hello!
I've been watching FT videos for a while now and finally decided to get my feet wet. My first build was a mini mustang, but I soon realized it was too heavy to fly...it was made out of elmers foam board. After 6 months of waiting, the local dollar tree finally stocked white foam board. I think I got all the flat ones! Here's my mini Sportster. Maiden flight in a few hours…nervous!
I'm looking to step into the DTFB design club, so I'm just in need of a quick tip. What is the actual thickness of DTFB? The nominal thickness is around 0.1875" or 3/16 “, but when I convert FT's plans to dxf's, the slots seem to be around 0.169" thick to allow for tight fitting. I am need of advice regarding this topic before I'm able to continue designing on Autodesk Inventor.
I'm glad to be a part of the FT community and hope make some significant contributions. Cheers!
