FoamFloats.com submission for the Todds Models Gym-E

Submitted by: Benard Cawley

Specs:
Motor/Battery:??
AUW: ??
Floats: 17" (now 19")

Mounting:
The attach points for the Tiger Moth worked fine (main gear hardpoint should be placed about 5 ½" from the float tip, and the rear hardpoint should be placed at about 12 ½" from the float tip). The forward attach is exactly as your instructions call for except that a longer spreader (I used .080 carbon) is needed - 10 inches long. The aft mount is another set of legs made from 1/16 wire, bent to go along the fuslage for about 1 3/4 inches, under it and back again, held on by some tape. They go down about an inch forward of the aft wing mount and mate up just fine with the aft attach point on the TM floats. Done this way the step comes out about 3/8 aft of the CG and seems to work just fine.

Flying:
??? do tell

please gather your newest pics benard! detail pics of mount would be good.
