tsr2 swinger

early pics

im thinking about moving the wings forward a bit im also thinking about increasing the sweep on the main wing what do you reckon?

[eatthis]

decision made lol

[eatthis]

its not going to be easy to bury the outer wings in the main wing.

i have moved the wing forward a bit too

Glad you chose the right option before we had a chance to convince you 

I think it looks great with the wing moved forward, and the swing wing is a neat idea as well !

How do you plan on finishing her, as a RN bird ?

lightning efq 1 monster engine alot more fuel



valkyrie was black but decals dont show up so iv had to do it white

only recently logged back in here couldnt be bothered to put all the threads up lol

im putting my new builds up here now though

[eatthis]

1 strip of card on the leading edge gives space for the outerwing to fit nicely and iv made stops inside the wing glove for the outer wing too

[eatthis]

mock ups nearly done and it works a treat!
the stops work perfectly and the leading and trailing edge spacers hold the wing with just the right amount of resistance.
also the rear quarter flap (bit of upper wing that goes unsupported over the top of the swing wing) conforms niceley ie it doesnt stick up it sits on the wing nicely





top wing on



il either blend the rear quarter part together or i might even fill it in.
1st il make the assembly fit agianst the fuse properly

[eatthis]

iv tidied them up so theyr symetrical now lol
