Everyone should call the non emergency (annoyance line) or the airport whenever they hear and see one one of these noisy polluters flying around making a racket. Hopefully the FAA will start requiring these guys to follow the same regulations as other motorized aircraft. It's only a matter of time before these guys screw everything up for us air powered pilots.

thanks, the plans for the outer tapered ribs have the twist drawn in. so I calculate the rise and make sure that it is correct from the spar to the trailing edge for each rib and that the trailing edge is straight.

I like Mimwax from Lowe's, I brush on the larger surfaces and spray the hard to get to areas like ribs. all books on building with wood says to seal all your wood inside to protect it from wood rot and mold The project manual calls this out. The scarf joint is a taper 15 to 1 . 1mm thick plywood = 15 mm wide. EAA has some good books that covers building with wood.
