Post by: 63cpe on December 16, 2018, 02:00:56 pm: Most PSR done! Too bad dust entered the cockpit and is now sticking to the inside of the canopy. Think the airbrush will solve that..

Post by: joncarrfarrelly on December 17, 2018, 02:07:26 pm: Nice. :thumbsup:

Payen’s fléche series are classifed as tandem-wing rather than as canard aircraft,
ditto the Miles Libellulas and the Delanne designs.

Post by: 63cpe on January 01, 2019, 12:37:07 pm: Thank you gentlemen.

@ Caveman the prop came from an Noratlas.. it is a tad too big. Probably have to settle for something smaller in diameter like a p-63, p-51 or Spitfire Mk9 prop..

Will you have the model like "in flight" (no problem) or with undercarriage (requiring long long legs)? ;)
Title: Re: Payen Flèche Bleue
Post by: 63cpe on January 13, 2019, 07:00:11 am: It'll be on it's main gear. I've changed the prop to a better acceptable F-27 friendship prop.

It also looks superb as well. :thumbsup:

Post by: Deltafan on April 20, 2019, 03:34:02 pm: Hi,

Good work 63cpe ! :thumbsup:

I dream of making such a model (with the frame of a 1/72 Supermarine Seafire Mk 47 and the wings and canards of a 1/48 Payen Pa.101 or of a Pa.22/5).

What is the frame that you used for this model ? Do you made your own wings and canards ? In what material ?

How do you "stick" wings (glue ?) and canards (?) ?
Title: Re: Payen Flèche Bleue; pictures @ p2
Post by: ericr on April 20, 2019, 03:52:01 pm: excellent

especially the single wheel ;D
Title: Re: Payen Flèche Bleue; pictures @ p2
Post by: 63cpe on April 21, 2019, 10:46:16 pm: Thanks Gentlemen,

@ Deltafan: the fuselage is from an Italeri MC.202 Folgore including the belly radiator and vertical tailplane. The aft wings are made from plasticart (2x1 mm) and the front wings are Matchbox Meteor nf 11/12/14 tailplanes. and because the fuselage and wings are made from the same styrene material, it was bonded by ordinairy (revell) glue. Which has the plus of setting slowly so i could adjust the wings to be even. Aft wings have a slight anhedral. The front wings have a slight dihedral.
