Trumpeter's Condor

Hi,

I just got this kit as a Christmas gift and have read on the web that I should add a wing spar in the wing. I have read the review on this kit (in my older issue of FSM), and it mentions that someone at IPMS Philippines has a plan for a spar for this kit. I did some research on there site but I could find nothing. Does anyone knonw where I can get these plans for the spar for this kit?

Thank you,

In Mel Silvestre’s build of the Condor over at ARC, he talks about plans for his home made wing spars which are free for others to make use of, except I couldnt see the plans.

This is a retail set, I might splash out for these. I got the Condor at a pretty good price ($60) which is half of the MSRP, so 14 bucks for wing spars wont kill me…

Hey these things arent even cut from plastic, just balsa ! Maybe I’ll do it myself ?

Summit’s wing spar is a bit more rudimentary, but hey, it seems to work and it didnt cost him $14 plus shipping right ? Maybe this is the way to go ? Summit, feel free to jump in here…

Steve Palffy built one over at Hyperscale, looks like he just chucked a piece of balsa in there as well…

Thanks for the links!!! These are the sites that I found too, I was just wondering if anyone had a dimensioned copy of the plans. Thanks again, [Y]
