Salut Éric,

Alors pas de probleme tu as déjà les plans du CH701SP. SI tu regardes le gross weight au début de tes plans tu devrais voir 1100lbs...

C'ets beau. Norm

Salut Éric,

Quand la premiere version des plans du CH701SP est sortie, Heinz mentionnait a la 2e page les pieces a changer pour faire d'un CH701 un CH701SP ... Ca touche le SPAR, les renforts aux points d'attache des ailes et de l'élévateur. C'ets pas des grosses modifs mais ca fait que tu peux légalement etre plus pesant ...

Salut Éric,

Il y a plusieurs version de plans pour le CH701. La version que j'avais au début est pour le gross weight a 960lbs. Après il y a eu la version a 1100lbs GW elle est connue sous le nom de CH701SP et plusieurs pièces ont été modifiées pour atteindre le gross weight plus pesant. Si tu n'as pas fermé tes ailes vérifie ca et tu pourrais facilement faire le switch.

Salut Éric,

Bone idée les ribs additionnelles. Ca ne pèse rien de plus et ca rend l'aile pas mal plus solide et la skin a moins tendance a faire des 'waves'. J'espère que tu construis le CH701SP il est plus solide et le gross weight est minimum 1100 lbs (1200lbs possible).

Laches pas.
