Curare
By Hans & Hanno Prettner

Wingspan 64" , Length 56-3/4"
.61 2C engine
Plane is SPA Legal
The Curare is one of the most sought after planes in 1970's.
This is you chance to fly a legend.
A Version 2 of the CURARE has
been released! The new version has a light, easy to build sheeted
turtle deck (1/16" balsa) , instead of the old version with tri-stock, thick
sheets, and lots of carving! There are 3 New formers, modified fuse sides, and
modified front doublers to accomplish this.
To order Version 2, simply click on the "Curare V2 KIT"
add to cart button along with the parts you wish to order. There is $0
tied to this, it simply lets us know you wan the new version. Order your
kit options as usual.
The new version 2 costs the same as the old version, no
increase!
DON'T click on it if you want the old version.
Both versions are available to suit your building style!
The Curare can be purchased with either a foam wing and stab,
or with built up wing and stab. A few changes have been made to make wood
acquisition easier. The tri stock along the turtle deck is 'square', i.e.:
same on both sides, unlike the plans. The beam engine mount has been
replaced with a standard firewall/engine mount. Every other rib on the
built up wing has building tabs and 1/4" wing jig holes. The fuse has been changed from the butt joint
by the tank area, to a 'z-curve joint' above the wing. This is for strength
purposes, since the engine beams are no longer there.
Included parts list can be
downloaded here. Wing fillets are included, and wing & stab tips are
included.
Canopy and Plans are INCLUDED on all Curare
kits!!
Flaps and control linkages are now included on
Complete kit.
The wood needed to
complete the plane is included in the complete kit, in case you don't wish to purchase it separately. A list of
included wood is below.
