24" Simplified-scale Hurricane based on Comet dime scale plan
This is basically the Comet dime scale plan scaled up by 150% and using 3/32 wood for easy building and strength. I have added riblets and a few other tweaks to make it slightly stronger and easier to build and additional side and bottom stringers for a more rounded fuselage. The resulting structure is light but rugged and should make for an excellent FAC simple scale or WW2 mass launch model. It also qualifies for the Battle of Britain mass launch event.
Kit includes all sheet parts, plus trailing edges, fuselage verticals. longerons, cross pieces and ply parts as well as a Gizmo Geezer thrust button and parts for a laminates spinner. Also comes with a sheet of paper parts including fillets, tail wheel, tail light and a pilot.
To simplify ordering I have devised five basic kit purchase options (you can customize your order by filling your cart as needed on the various product pages):
Bare bones - a simple short kit with all items described above excluding the plan (you can get the digital plan here and print it yourself and select your prop if you want one here)
Basic - Short kit, and a single sheet folded printed plan (select your prop if you want one here ).
Basic plus - Short kit, a single sheet folded printed plan and a wooden 9.5 inch prop kit.
Full meal deal - short kit, printed plan, a wooden 9.5 inch prop kit, and printed tissue set.
