'Flair Puppeteer' ~ Laser-cut parts set

This is Not a full kit, no plan is included and additional materials will be required to finish the model.

A lightly loaded Bi-plane based on the Sopwith Pup with four ailerons responds well to low-speed aerobatics. 

This is an after-market rib set to suit the Flair Puppeteer - they are not OEM parts.

Unlike the originals, ribs are cut to suit their locations for ailerons, there is no trimming required!
