Hawker Typhoon, the successor to the famous Hurricane, is most notable as an excellent fighter-bomber, before which there was no locomotive or a German tank safe. An airplane with a massive armament of four guns, the rockets and bombs hung a huge contribution to disrupt the German rear before the Allied landing in Normandy and after. 150 shattered locomotives per month, it was common for Typhoon average ...
Kit free-flying semiscales British fighter aircraft designed for drive by rubber. The model is simple but classic balsa construction in Rozsyp with předseknutými wooden parts, scale accessories from vacuum-molded plastic and plastic parts drawn by injection molding. Given that it is a very small - albeit simple - model, you should already have prior experience with classical building and test-flying models powered by rubber.
Fuselage structure consists of a pair of sidewalls connected předseknutých balsa wood balsa bulkheads supplemented shaped bulkheads and stringers allowing curves depict the actual machine. The wing is a classic design of ribs and beams, tail board are glued beams of balsa wood.
Typhoon is also suitable for conversion to a miniature RC model with electric drive - although this construction plan of variants offer for experienced modelers and pilots would not be a big problem. For example, you can try to use the drive unit and onboard electronics of our Mini Bee.
Kit includes: předseknuté balsa parts, balsa wood beams, vacuum-molded parts (engine cover, canopy), a plastic propeller shaft and head, rubber harness, wheels, steel strings on chassis and other small parts, paper coating, wet decal sheet, building Plan.
Tip for building: Předseknuté parts NEVYLAMUJTE! Turn the cutting board, place it on a work surface and lightly sand the fine sandpaper (No. 220 or finer). Parts can then be easily separated; should still have some wood fibers "bound" to a cutting board, carefully separate the part of the pattern, using a sharp knife (suitable as Excel No.1 knife with a blade 11).
Treatment of rubber volume: a new eraser gently wash it in soapy water and allow to dry. Then lubricate it with castor oil (sold in pharmacies) or silicone grease for the lubrication of fishing line (you get the fishing tackle shops). After flying with the volume model, remove and store it in a sealed plastic bag. Lubricated rubber volume depends more smoothly and with less friction - gives more power and last longer. The new volume is also advisable to first fetch - for the first 2-3 years only to turn the 80-100 revolutions before it can safely shoot more.
