Wood and Steel Fuselages
Posted: Fri Jan 08, 2021 2:13 am
The wood and steel fuselages are substantially different in design.
The wood version is comprised mainly of vertical members combined with diagonals that slope "down and back".
Whereas the steel version has no vertical member but rather diagonals that slope both ways.
Also the steel version looks to be about 2" shorter even than the "short version" of the wooden options.
Does anyone know the reason for the structural differences and the shorter length?
Oscar?
Thanks
