As an aside, it would have been a logical step to join two stipas together side by side with a center wing section housing the flight crew pod at mid level instead of on top.
and if they housed the propeller inside the duct, it would have increased the efficiency as well. Ah, the beauty of hindsight........ Nice work at this unusual aircraft. Isaac

Hello Erik and Isaac,
Thank you for the encouragement Now glue on the back side first ... then step by step the leading edge ... Likewise with the second wing part ... then close the front. And now I can just push the wings on the wing bars, fits! I will stick the wings but only after mounting the chassis, this again because of the handling. Yours sincerely Kurt |

Nicely done, Kurt. It looks deceptively simple which means it is going to be much tougher than the average Bear. Thanks for demonstrating the methods I learn a little every time I drop by.

Also, the propeller is very small ... after a good through-drying of the suspension, the Caproni stands on its own feet for the first time
Connect the finished propeller to the engine Yours sincerely Kurt |

Hello !
it goes into the final ... Now push the finished wings onto the struts ... and glue them together The tensions are made of 0.04 mm flower wire, silver-colored and 0.05 mm copper wire ... Finally, the two windscreen discs, the cockpit flap and the jam tube mounted - ready Now, after 35 construction days with a crafting time of 42 hours, the Caproni Stipa is ready for the maiden flight. My conclusion is very positive. Initial considerations at studying of a bow have disappeared in air. A praise to the designer, everything fits together perfectly. An all-round successful bow had something else on it. That was fun !!! With best regards from Styria Kurt |
