tutor 40 build plans


Recommended Posts

I'd have thought it would have been against copyright to reproduce someone elses design? I'm sure Irvine wont be doing so.

 

Anyhow, if its a built up wing, it'll just be a standard D section construction. What else would you need to know (apart from the fact that it hasnt been designed to take 2 engines) lol.

i was wondering if the aluminium support beam within the wing would be in the way of the prospective engine mountings.

 

i have already figured out workable strategy to mounting the 2 engines in an appropriate manner using block balsa and normal engine mounts, which will be reinforced using carbon rods within the structure.

 

i was also wondering if they where standard d sections or weight saving d sections

I hope I'm not jumping to conclusions, but block balsa will probably not provide a suitable bulkhead for motor mounting.

your quite right arun, block balsa on its own wouldnt be strong enough to hold an engine, thas why its going to be attached to a normal mounting to act as supports for a balsa panel covering that will surround the engine to act as cowling. if you want, i can go into a more in depth description as to how im going to do this.
