I hope that it is not warped or distorted in anyway....

Glue the cap strips down. (Take note of my glue!)

Well Done ! ...although I would rather go with a bottle of 'medium' Zap (Green bottle) instead of the 'thin' Zap (Pink bottle) ...slightly stronger.

Finally i have the time to sit down and get some work done on my nutmeg build again....
Here's the inboard wings....

Lay out all the pieces which are required for assembly. As usual, i have completed the other half, hence I am able to build it reverse without much reference to the plans which are printed on the other side.


Trial fit to make sure that everything goes where they are supposed to go.

I have to apologize for the intermediate builds because my phone batt went low...

The wings almost completed before sheeting.


I took it out of the formers quite quickly before sheeting, So I hope that it is straight.... The sheeting should be already almost completed before removing it out from the formers as to reduce the warping as far as possible.

The wing joiner tubes are epoxied into place.

So far so good... Most likely the servos will be next, together with the ailerons and spoilers. I did not install the linkages which are used on the spoiler because they are using rubber bands and strings. When the rubber bands degrade over time or storage, they lose their elasticity and crap out, so i am installing a servo to control the spoilers separately.

Hi,
I saw that there is also a slightly cheaper verison - Nutmeg #1 in SHS. Except for the vertical fin, there were only slight difference.
Was there a reason that you went for the #2?

Have anyone booked the plans after you have completed the build? If not, can I 'borrow' the plans?

Thanks.

The difference between Nutmeg #1 and #2 is the #2 has aileron. Correct ne if I'm wrong.

Eh...I thought Nutmeg is RES glider (i.e. Rudder, Elevator, Spoiler).

The nutmeg 1 has only rudder, elevator and spoilers.

The nutmeg 2 has rudder, elevator, spoilers and ailerons...

[foampervert]

hhmm... well i dunt see any ailerons

The nutmeg 1 has only rudder, elevator and spoilers.

The nutmeg 2 has rudder, elevator, spoilers and ailerons...

it seems like a elevator, rudder, spoiler throttle kinda glider... but just in case it DOESN"T have ailerons, is it possible to add them in? and maybe flaps as well...
