And the Eric Flugzeug-Werke's machines have begun to roll.
And already, I've experienced a lousy start. :(
I though I could get away with designing the wings without using formers. Yeah right.
After hours of wrestling with the paper, trying to get that stupid anhedral wingtip to assemble correctly, I got this sloppy excuse for a wing:
Man... that ain't gonna hold up. It looks like it was made out of tissue paper.
I had to go back to the drawing board and whip up a set of wing formers..pronto!
And here's what I got:
I'd say they look darned good!
I then reprinted the diagrams for the wings. After cutting and wrapping them around these formers, here's what I got:
Pretty darned good improvement over the first wing prototype. And sturdier too!
A little rest before I start with the fuselage.
