SPAD
Simple Plastic Airplane Design
After building high winged airplanes for several months, we agreed that we
needed something a bit sleeker that also did away with rubber bands. That
inspiration led us to the development of the Demon. This plane flies like a Scat
Cat! Very solid flight characteristics with no bad habits and it looks so good on
the ground and in the air!

Page 2: Tail Feathers
Dowel scraps can be used in the corrugations at the attach points to prevent Coroplast® crush. 6. Optional panel edging can be added to the stab leading edges for dress up and to keep dirt & fuel out if desired. file:///C|/Users/Frank/Documents/Demon/dem2.html[6/14/2011 4:30:56 PM]... -
Page 3: Landing Gear
REAR wing mount holes (see drawing #7). Use the same drill sizes you used when you mounted the tail feathers. Using two ¾†#6 sheet metal screws, mount the wing to the fuselage. NOTE: The landing gear will retain the forward edge of the wing. Landing Gear: file:///C|/Users/Frank/Documents/Demon/dem2.html[6/14/2011 4:30:56 PM]... - Page 4 3.

That's it! Your SPAD is done! We sincerely hope you found our instructions and drawings clear enough for you to build your airplane without complications. If you found any errors, or procedures confusing, please e-mail us, we welcome your input and will do our best to improve any problem areas. - Page 6 9. Your SPAD will remain stable and hang on the elevator beautifully during slow flight and landing. With it's long wing chord, the SPAD will fly like a kite against a 10 mph+ wind! Keep in mind that the SPAD has quite a high drag front profile, and will slow down fairly quickly when throttled back or dead stick.
