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.
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 is INCLUDED!!
PDF of plans can be
downloaded here, if you want to print them out. Printed plans are sold separately.
Plans are not included in short kit price.
The wood in the Sheets and Sticks pack is the wood needed to
complete the plane, in case you don't wish to purchase it separately. A list of
included wood is below.
You can order printed plans with your short kit.
