You also will want to have a tightly-fitting removable balsa nose plug with some way to adjust the thrust-line of the propeller.

If you can find any of the old books by Don Ross, Bill Warner, and Bill Hannan, you will find them very useful.

Bill Warner's book on building the classic Flying Aces Moth deals with a specific model, but the techniques are applicable to all simple free-flight stick-and-tissue rubber-powered airplane models: https://www.amazon.com/Building-Flyi.../dp/0830625100

Bill Hannan's books may still be available here: Plans and Things

Don Ross's books seem to be available through Amazon : https://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Powere.../dp/0938716190

This is one of several stick-and-tissue sites with a lot of information: https://www.stickandtissue.com/cgi-b...num=1355704183
https://www.stickandtissue.com/links.htm

And for more complex, 1/24 scale warplanes, Dave Diels' site is one good place to go. I suspect that you can also contact Dave for advice and information: https://dielsengineeringinc.com/

Others will have more up-to-date info (I haven't built stick-and-tissue for about a decade, but retain a deep-down interest).

Keep 'em flying!
