Here\u2019s a plane to make grammar sticklers bristle, the EEE Z Fli Bi from Model Builder magazine.\u00a0 It couldn\u2019t be any easier to build, but beware of a few mistakes on the plan.<\/p>\n
The notes on the plan specify +1.5 degrees positive incidence on the bottom wing, and a 1\/4\u2033 dowel for the leading edge, but the drawing shows +1\/4 degree on the bottom wing and a 5\/16\u2033 dowel.\u00a0 Also, the bottom airfoil is drawn about 3\/4 the height that it is supposed to be.<\/p>\n
I kept the 5\/16 dowel as shown in the profile drawing so the airfoil would match the plan, and I fixed the lower airfoil to make it match the top one.\u00a0 I cut the lower wing saddle at +1\/4 degree incidence to match the plan, so you can either install the wing as-is, or cut the wing saddle to +1.5 degrees.<\/p>\n
Other than that it\u2019s pretty much like the plan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
