RC Plane Depron Forming - Biplane Fuselage

[@captainwesb57]

This is absolutely ingenious! What model is this, and where can you find the plans?

[@scalercmodels9261]

Thanks! It is my own design. Actually, the mold was used before for the fuselage of a Focke-Wulf FW190.

I'm guessing a similar method can be used for other models - for example, the Spitfire?

[@scalercmodels9261]

Yes, I used the same method also for a Spitfire fuselage: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXXOYqaaeJmhh6M

Great job with the fuselage. Are your wings two sheets of depron sanded to an airfoil?

[@scalercmodels9261]

Two sheets of depron, the lower one 6mm and the upper one 3mm. There's a balsa spar inside.The upper Depron sheet is bended a little around the spar to have an airfoil wing

[@BigAlNaAlba]

@@scalercmodels9261 Nica and simple yet effective :)

[@Kartman244]

How do you get the nice curved leading edge on the wings with 2 sheets of foam, does it have a balsa leading edge?

[@scalercmodels9261]

Actually, when I remember corectly these wings in this case are made out of 1 piece of foamboard and a balsa stringer. The foamboard gets a kink inside, then some tape for protection on the outside and then is bended over the edge of a table, over the stringer and finally fixated with a little epoxy. Normally I use two sheets, but indeed I answered wrong in a previous comment
