The Puddlejumper was designed to be built with the Cardinal foam wing and stabilizer made by Midwest. \u00a0Unfortunately Midwest is no longer in business, and the wing and stabilizer are no longer available.<\/p>\n
My short kit includes a balsa stabilizer and a set of ribs for a built up constant chord wing. \u00a0Wing area is 330 square inches. \u00a0You can get the wing plan here<\/a>. \u00a0The pylon in the kit is laminated from 3 layers of 1\/16\u2033 birch plywood and one layer of 3\/16\u2033 balsa. \u00a0If you want to mount a .10 size glow engine sideways on the pylon, use it as supplied in the kit. \u00a0If you prefer to mount your engine or electric motor\u00a0on a flat firewall, cut all three layers of the plywood pylon as shown on the wing plan and epoxy the optional firewall in place on the pylon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Puddlejumper was designed to be built with the Cardinal foam wing and stabilizer made by Midwest. \u00a0Unfortunately Midwest is no longer in business, and the wing and stabilizer are no longer available.
