"Spook" can it be done?
Cribbs74 Sat Jan 05, 2013 3:28 am
Has anyone ever done one in balsa? Or do I have to be the first?
The wing looks very similar to a Li'l Satan. Would love to have some dimensions if anyone on here has the real deal.

I don't know, i thought i read somebody drew up plans for this, it should be a pretty easy thing to do, the CG will be more forward with the light balsa, maybe use lite-ply for fuselage...

I checked the plan gallery at Hip Pocket Areonautics, free login required, and there is a spook that is very not similar to the Cox spook.

$3.98! The check is in the mail. I'll bump it up to $5 just to make you feel better since you're probably depressed about the Capital One thing.

They are available, through Ebay and collectors. Be prepared to pay a pretty penny for one. I was wanting to build one to fly. If I had a real one it would stay in the box.

Ok,

Thanks!

Ron I also want to balsa build the spook
All we need are the wing length/width and profile of one rib
From the photos Mark posted every thing looks real easy and basic
If you do get a set of drawings or plans shoot me a set please

You bet!!! It's an awesome CAD drawing. I had it printed by a pal here at work as he has Autocad and a plotter printer. Shoot me a PM with your email address.
