{detailed description}How to build and fly the Flying Aces Moth -based on Bill Warner's widely read column, which appeared in Model Builder magazine.
The Flying Aces Moth is considered by many hobbyists to be the most popular airplane model ever created, and with good reason. Its long nose and stable landing gear position solved the problem that once plagued most beginner's models-the tendency to stall in midflight due to tail-heavy design.
Now, with Building the Flying Aces Moth, you too can enjoy the pleasure and satisfaction of constructing and flying this remarkable model. Bill Warner brings his fifty years of modeling experience to this fully illustrated guide, providing you with complete, step-by-step instructions on how to:
Select and use tools and materials
Understand flight aerodynamics
Assemble and fly your model
You'll also find valuable hints for placing the finishing touches on your Flying Aces Moth, including how to dethermalize, cover, and decorate it. Once you've mastered the basics of flight, you may even consider entering competitive contests-the perfect time to apply Warner's proven tips for high-performance flying. And, for more advanced modeling techniques, there's a section that explains how to build the Lacey M-10 Peanut Scale Model.
A complete list of model supply sources is included, making it easy to locate and order all the tools and materials you'll need.
