[WWI] Need help deciding.

[Steven Perry]

I'm leaning toward the Naglo. Only one basic wing panel to draw. And lack of
documentation eliminates the urge to give in to AMS and lets me concentrate
on making the basic airframe fly.

While there are many who build museum quality flying models, this build- off
tends more toward the "Sport Scale" end of the spectrum.  Compromises are
made for the sake of flyability and reasonable construction time.

I ment the A.2 with only 2 ailerons. I already have partial drawings made of
this one, but balance issues dictate the battery be in the pulpit and the
power cables routed along the U'C. A significant problem to overcome.

The Class SS airship would be the coolest. A local modeler here used to
operate a R/C advertising blimp. There isit would be possible to do it. More
of an indoor model and surely not an every day flyer.

The I'lya is more of a fantasy than a viable project. Balance issues are
formidable and the lifting tail makes for odd aerodynamics. By all accounts
it was a pig to fly. Several stories about two men being needed to haul back
on the yoke.

Still leaning towrd the Naglo
