Laser-Cut
,
Short-Kit Description
A laser-cut, short-kit contains only the basic building parts of a model aircraft. These parts are the hardest-to-make items in a kit, due to their unique shapes in providing the accuracy needed for a well-made model. RC modelers want the very best, precisely-cut parts for crafting their special airplane. They select “laser-cut” kit parts for the precision they provide for basic model structural components.
ALL Short-Kit Models in our store Contain All of the Following Parts, and are Also Included with This Particular Model
.
Typical parts in a model short-kit consist of balsa & plywood wing ribs, wing tips (balsa or plywood), plywood dihedral brace, & wing bolt plates. The plywood fuselage parts consist of firewall, fuselage formers, wing bolt plates, cable rudder platform, landing gear plate, tail wheel plate, wing seat doublers, and instrument panel plate(s). Fuselage balsa parts include top deck formers (some models also have bottom formers), turtle deck formers, and some kits have some of the tail parts pre-cut.
Additional materials you need to purchase are balsa, plywood, spruce, and possibly pine or basswood. The remainder of the model is made from balsa-wood sheets that are cut to shape by you, the builder. Also, some pieces may need to be cut to size by the modeler from a plywood sheet. The builder also needs to cut spruce wing spars, and spruce fuselage longerons; and possibly cut pine or basswood parts for the landing gear rails, etc.
With your purchased laser-cut, short-kit, ALL accessories listed below are included
.
Typical accessories for a model usually consist of plastic canopy, pre-shaped aluminum landing gear or bent wire, epoxy glass cowl (wheel pants on some models), & aluminum wing tube and phenolic for some models. However, these accessories can also be ordered separately from our store if needed. Model plans are also available for purchase separately.
