[WWI] Martinsyde Buzzard info

Dave,
Apologies for being a pedant, but it's "chord", not "cord". A cord is a
piece of string...! ;-)

Hi Paul

 

But on photos of the CMR kit I have seen built, the interplane struts look
more akin to what I would expect from period photos of the RAF machines (ie
almost, but not quite parallel with each other). The problem I seem to have
is that the Pegasus kit looks as if it's been based on the surviving Finnish
example, while unfortunately I'm building the RAF option. Is it possible
that the later export aircraft had a larger difference in upper and lower
wing cord resulting in less paralell looking struts?

 

Regards

 

Dave

I stalled on the CMR kit of same, and I already had the Datafile. Couldn't
get the wing to sit right, even after I realised that all the struts were
far too long as supplied. Serves me right for trying to use resin kit
struts. At least with the Pegasus kit you know you have to cut them yourself
from the beginning.

 

 

Actually that doesn't help you, but it makes me feel better to winge a bit
now and then.

 

 

Paul.
