Irish Fouga for Aerosexuals

irishsurfer

Very hard kit, gave undercarriage a miss - counterwights to be fitted
I have not made a model in years, so this was prob. too much too soon

Photos taken with a camcorder so please excuse the quality

Anyway, consider it a first attempt

Hi there,

Talking about the Fouga (nice looking model ! ), here is mine, started this week end :



Reproducing (well, from 2 miles away, in the dark, and the fog...;) ) the Patrouille de France scheme.

Almost done, just the VTail and the aileron's servos to install.

Not too bad after 3 hrs of "hard" work !
Should be finished tomorrow, first flight planned for this week end at the Glider National.

The Fouga made its maiden voyage last week end at the National !
Nothing to say really, fly great ! Just a bit of up at the elevator and that's it !
Flew with only one aileron without any problems (one of the servo decide to die, or committed suicide before the first fright ! )

Did the first flights without the wingtanks. Added them after (looks much better !) and no differences in the controls ! Even with only 1 ailerons !
