1936 Flyer CAD model

mlnorby created the topic: 1936 Flyer CAD model

Hi all;

I just wanted to share my current project. What you see is a 1/4 scale 1936 Flyer with a Zenoah 260 in place. Special thanks to Jon for sharing his engine model with me! The main framerails are 5.0" apart (measured from the inside). This will enable me to drop a standard fuel cell and servo box in so I don't need to custom build them, too. Construction is tenatively set for fall.

Thoughts? Concerns?

Thanks,

mlnorby

That's very interesting. I'm building the same boat full size. I'm going to have the frames cnc cut have already done a test. I used rino for the cad program. What are you using? Here is a screen shot.

heya- fantastic! I'm an engineer in Denver, CO. The program used is Acad2009. From all the research that I have done, there appears to be very little background information for this boat.

Looking at your model, it appears that the top profile of the hull is differnt than mine. Do you have a reference for the radii used? It sounds like we are both at a point where a change isn't too $$$.
