Here are the details for
building the pay-load area.
Notch the pay-load plate for the landing
gear brace as shown here. (notch at top right in image)
Then notch the 3/16'' plywood parts for a
good fit to the piano wire.
Note the bottom piece is
all one piece and will be glued on last. (Shown at the top of the
image)
Place a payload plate in place and epoxy
the 3/16'' parts to it as shown in the image.
Then epoxy the other side on making sure
to fill the areas around the main frame wire with epoxy.
This will complete
the pay-load area.
The pay-load plate is where you
should mount the heaviest part of your added weight.
If need be, you can place the
receiver and receiver battery (if flat pack) in the fuel tank compartment.
This will give you more room on the pay-load
plate.
If you have questions
