PROFILE ONLY

PROFILE ONLY(THE BUILD-POLYOPIA). Building the model-polyopia begin with the manufacture of the fuselage (Fig. 1), the contours of the lateral projection should most accurately reflect the similarity with the copied aircraft. To the fuselage structure demands maximum strength with minimum weight. The greatest difficulty in its manufacture is the reduction in the weight of the tail, which is much longer than the front, So it makes truss.
