Novus Aerospace 13" maxi-Saucer

sport boost glider


My original 13" maxi-Saucer died during its first trimming flight, so I need to rebuild it.
I was only able to salvage the saucer stand-off and the reinforcing dowel from the original model, so we'll rebuild starting with that.


Construction

28 March, 1998 Started rebuild.
Salvaged saucer stand-off and reinforcing dowel from previous model.
Sanded 'vee' on the bottom to better fit the dihedral break of the saucer and rounded leading edge for better looks.
A full length of BT-20 is used for the body tube, glued to the stand-off.
Cut saucer from 1/8" ArtCor.

Built: in process
Launches: none, yet
Repairs: none, *yet*
