Maddog designs nemesis

got a box today full of the new Maddog nemesis.



i hope to be building this kit very soon and will be converting it to electric power.

62" wing span.
foam core wings
ply fuselage construction.

everything thing in the kit looks to be well designed and made and was packed very well.
the model was designed for ic, so a few alterations will have to be made to fit my choice of motive power.

keep your eye on this company, they look to be very good.

Tony.

Any hint on price Tony ???

Garry

price for the kit is £119 plus £12 postage.
then you have to build it. he he he

Don't you think that looks ever so slightly like a WOT 4?

everything looks like a wot 4 pol.
there are only so many ways you can design a high wing sports plane.

look like a Wot4? If you squint a bit it does look like a slightly rabid Wot4 that's been force fed steroids

a nice collection of parts in the box, every thing you need apart from electrics, glue and covering.

Looks like a wot4 and a riot have been breeding . That's the 70s afterwards cig
When you said nemesis thought initially was the racer

Insnt there suposed to be wings on those wing tongues?

Tony, your plane looks functional, looks a bit retro, should be a good steady B cert mount though, thought you were skint

ahhh.
well.
i sold 2 planes on tuesday.
and i got a good deal on it.

Lets get down to business shall we,

First job (after reading the instructions) is to cut out and assemble the tail plane and elevators.


Then do the same with the fin and rudder.

Next job is to find all the fuselage parts that have to be epoxied together and do them.


While they are drying you can tackle the fuselage sides.


Lay the two sides out and Position the doubler's, making sure you have a left and right hand sides.

then glue the doubler's in place.



run the angled balsa stock along the top and bottom of the rear of the fuselage and round the tail plane slot.

go have a cup of coffee.

come back from your coffee and stick all the formers in place on one side, making sure they are all upright.


Go have lunch while it dries.

thank you.

I like your style on this one Tony. Made me smile, well done

Garry

Right then.
After lunch you can go back outside and join the two halves together and then go have yet another coffee while it sets.

Visit the loo for a pee and then go and then pull the tail of the fuselage in and glue the tail post in.

While this is setting you can sand the rudder, elevator, fin and tailplane to shape and then temporarily hinge them.




Next comes the cross sheeting of the top and bottom of the fuselage.


get bored with doing that and slide the tail assembly in for a look see.


Finally glue in the fuel tank support or battery tray (depending on your choice of power). here is where i now have to make a battery hatch.


we are getting there.

Triangular taiplane doublers--on the inside? i quite like that, never even occurred to me,

Time for today's story children.

I finished sheeting the fuselage this morning and took a look at the esc mount.
It has to go under the battery tray, so will need an access hatch.
I fixed a bit of balsa to the front where the nose fill fit and then cut a ply panel that is held on with screws.




Next job was to cut the hole in the firewall for the motor wires to run through.

will be made neater soon.

Cut the holes in the cowl carefully.


The i slid the nose on and worked out the motor mount box.


Then the whole kit and caboodle was glued on and braced back to the firewall with fillets.


I glued the tail plane and fin on as per instructions and took a few pics.






glued the wing tips to the foam core wings and will tackle them tomorrow. i hope.
