Midwest super stearman kit how to#
Here’s my best shot at explaining how to do this. You’ll have to complete the kit by buying your own sheet and stick wood from a balsa dealer. Here’s an explanation of what a short kit is, with pictures. Items: Glow plug, foam rubber padding, medium fuel tubing, fuel filter, propeller, building and field equipment. While you’re here check out the Balsa Stick Store. Two Dual Servo Extensions: For aileron and elevator servos Two 12" (300mm) Servo Extensions: For ailerons Three 24" (610mm) Servo Extensions: 2 elevators, 1 rudder One 6" (150mm) Servo Extension: For receiver to aileron connection Servos: 7 total, 5 ball bearing (2-Elevator, 2-Ailerons, 1-Rudder)ġ standard torque servo for kill switch if using gasoline engine Ignition Switch: GPMG2150, if using gasoline engine Max 1.60 2-stroke the standard muffler will work A fuel tank, 4-40 linkages, an engine mount and steerable tailwheel assembly are just a few of the items supplied.Įngine: 1.60 - 2.00 cu in (26 - 33 cc) 2-stroke Ready for final assembly! Building and finishing are already complete, and a complete Great Planes hardware package is included. Wing panels slide onto an aluminum joiner tube and bolts quickly and securely to the fuselage. A two-piece wing simplifies attachment, removal and travel. 1.60 FX to maximize the power-to-weight ratio, or with the efficient Fuji-Imvac BT-32B for maximum fuel economy. Glow and gas power options! Go with the 2-stroke O.S. Servos for all control surfaces are mounted externally, for simple installation, easy adjustment and swift, precise response. Stable and predictable on takeoff and approach, and "flier-friendly" through rolls, stall turns, inverted flight and other sport aerobatics. The Giant Super Sportster is perfect for hours of stress-free flight. Fiberglass cowl and wheel pants are factory-formed, hand-painted and ready to be installed and admired almost immediately.
Features the trademark Super Sportster "starburst" trim scheme, done in the rich, glowing colors of Top Flite MonoKote film. Hand-crafted from sturdy ply and select balsa, yet ready for takeoff in just 20-24 hours. It's a brand-new way to enjoy a classic and an easy introduction to the fun of giant-scale flying. Great Planes Giant Super Sportster is the perfect marriage: spectacular, IMAA-legal dimensions matched to superbly smooth and easy Super Sportster handling. Your decision to add plywood to the gear mount is a good one not only for strength but replaces the equivalent lead weight you would need in the nose for balance, anyhow.This is the Great Planes Giant Super Sportster Sport Glow or Gas Powered ARF Airplane. In any case, after market replacement gear is available for sale which is fabricated from proper aircraft grade aluminum. But, also think the aluminum gear is the wrong specification as being too soft and lacks proper springing action partly due however, to the thick metal cross section. Yes, also had my plywood landing gear anchor break away from the fuselage in my Midwest Stearman in a very mild snag on some high grass.

I also suspect that the JU52 wasn't a welcome sight in Denmark 50 yrs+ ago. Anyhow, quite a sight for an old Aero Engineer. I suspect they give rides to tourist in the JU52 as I saw it fly over and then shortly, come back over the city. Earlier, saw a JU52 fly over Berlin near the Brandenburg Gate. Would have liked to buy some but it was Sunday and they were closed and I had to leave for Oslo that night. Found a bookstore not too far from the harbor that had some interesting aircraft books in the window. Petersburg through Helsinki and Stockholm. I was in Copenhagen two years ago on way back from St.
