Hi everybody.
Just wanted to introduce myself to you.
My Dad and me are starting a Radial Skybolt over here in Germany. Right now we are clearing the last formal things with the OUV (which is the german equivalent for the EAA) If everything goes well we will cut the first tubing for the fuselage structure in spring 2015.
Right now im writing the piclist for the tubing neccesary. Until now i'm quite close to Jerry's list which i found here. Sadly the plans do not specify the digonal tubing stiffing out som of the members.
I already asked Steen and they gave me a suggestion what to use but told me that Curtiss who draw the plans didnt specify these particular tubes.
For that it wuld be interesting what you guys used.
I ve marked the tubing in the picture attached, here is what steen suggested to use:
00-00 = (3/4x.049) (G)
24-00 = (7/8x.049) (D)
85-77 = (3/4x.035) (H)
85-105 = (3/4x.035) (H)
105-111 = (5/8x.035) (K)
Is that what you would use?
Thanks for all information about that.
