    this may seem strange to start a build thread with the finished articles but, hey ho, here are what this thread is all about....

    Buzz, Steve Mitchell and Stueysheep each get a Fusion...

    i would like to point out that i have in no way any connection with this supplier other than being an extremely satisfied customer, i now have a great model and have received great service along the way.

    This all came about following a desire to get back into our monthly club competitions, immediate boredom set in whenever i spy a cougar, and feel there must be something better out there. I then found my club mate buzz had a part built Fusion which he hadn't got the time to finish. So i offered to finsish it off and use the learning to build me one too.

    then along the way Steve Mitchell saw it, and decided to build one too.... Well i thought i had done well finishing mine in around two weeks start to finish, but steve capped that with starting on a saturday afternoon and maidening it on the Friday just six days later.... and that's with two days off... and we are only talking about spare time too..  Smiley Smiley Smiley

    Build picture to follow over the next few days.....

    Seeing the obvious advantages of electric power i went for the power pack as advised by Gavin at evolution and supplied by him too.... this will provide clean, smooth power with hesitation free response... and no engine cut due to prop strike on the touch and goes.... well the u/c should stop that anyway. at least the airframe won't get gloopy from glow...

    it would be rude not to start straight away.... so on day one i spent two hours assembling the tail, and control surfaces. outlines pieces cut from the cnc balsa sheets and the infills from 3/16 by 3/8 strip.

    i used the blue stencil as a square to make sure it all at 90 degrees

    two fus sides are re-inforced with 1/16th ply doublers with lightening holes precut. here they are being pva'ed together. carefull they don't warp whilst it dries.... can of course use contact adhesive of epoxy if you wish.

    do these look like two pengiuns chatting....

    .... i joined the fus sides together by attaching the servo mounts to one side by epoxy and then the other ensuring all is square along the way... i used supertec 2bb mg servos all round from moors models.... you can also see i have cut out the sing servo plates too. the holes are left for the builder as it will take standard size servos too

    The wing is soooo simple... Just lay down the lower spar, add the ribs, add the shear webs to get the correct gaps between the ribs, add top spar and uhupor glue...

    Leave to dry and add leading edge and trailing edge...

    whilst the ribs were drying i moved on with the fuselage... the top rear section is cut to shape already and give the correct taper and keeps the fus straight. still needs double checking though...

    Once true, i added the bottom decking too and the front top deck....

    Then a thorough sanding and trial fit the tailskid and rudder and stabiliser which interlock and glue together inside the fus....

    The tail was not glued until after covering to make that job easier... 

    here is the leading edge sheeting getting applied.... the front is glued to the leading edge first and allowed to set, then the remainder is curved and stuck using foam safe cyano... careful with weighting as too much could crush the ribs...

    once all the leading edge and trailing edge sheeting is completed, the capping strips and central sheeting get glued on too.

    I have a 3s2200 pack I could try which may be a bit stretched. Could always prop it down to 44 amps at 11 volts would see about 480 watts... Considering I had a 10 minute flight on the 4s on Sunday and only used 1400mah..... then the 3s would be a good choice methinks...

    Gavin's prototype was fine on a 3300 set up on 3S... Gavin, are you still on here for comment....  Whistle Whistle Whistle Whistle Whistle

    Hi,

    The Fusion runs well on 3s, it can do everything the 4s setup can do, except the sustained vertical.  I actually designed the model for 3s to keep the cost affordable, its still a good competition model and I regularly use 3s 2200 pack for touch and go etc.

    The 4s is really only gives extreme acceleration, the videos on my website of Mike williams flying the model are with the 3s 2200mah pack.

    The tornado set-up with opto ESC using the programming card means that you can easily change from 3 to 4 cells - and I use a 14x7 for both set-ups!!
