[NSRCA-discussion] An education in balsa usage for pattern

[Dean Pappas]

Hello Chris,
It's a big subject, worthy of a feature article, not a short paragraph.
I have forwarded the idea to the Editor at Flying Models.

Subject: [NSRCA-discussion] An education in balsa usage for pattern



 

Can anyone tell me where  a person can get a "Crash" course in learning about balsa weights and strength and its proper use in balsa pattern models.

I notice a few years ago that in the 99 world champs most of the Japanese pilots models were balsa and light weight too.  It seems that everything I read of late seems to indicate that light weight and strength only come with composite construction.

 

Thanks....Chris
