Hi folks!

I'm new to the forum, but I've been in the aeromodelling scene for some years, but now it's time to get into the scales planes :) I decided to build a 1/4 scale Chipmunk designed by Jerry Bates. Just got the plans and starting planing how to start the construction; I value very much being able to join RCSB and take the advantage of exchange ideas about scale building and lots of things to learn. Thanks for let me in.
I hope that you guys can help me a little bit:

My first request is concerning the list of additional material required (mainly balsa/spruce stringers, etc) in addition to the short kit I already order from Bob Holman.
As I'm going to US to collect the short and the plans I also plan to purchase the rest of the wood material to complete the kit.

As many guys here in the forum had this experience before, hope someone could share with me.

Tulio,

You already have access to literally several build threads of Jerry Bates plans on the Chipmunk. Just look at the top row of title bars on your opening page. There should be one entitled “Community.” That should be right next to “Your Profile.” Just click into “Community” & several boxes will drop down. The first box says “Forum.”

Click onto “Forum” & scroll down to “Designers.”   From there, you will find many different designers of both plans & kits. You should find Jerry Bates Chipmunk about the fifth row down.

This is just the first page! You’ll find dozens of Chipmunk builds all over the place, many from different designers or even scratch built.

You will have a very good time & the Chipmunk builders will be more than happy to provide you with all of the answers to your questions. I’m sure that many of the build threads are old & out of date. That’s okay. No problem.   The build threads are still valid & good & should answer many of your questions. If you need further help or a more detailed response, just PM the builder & he will receive an email from this site for his Chipmunk build. From there, he will respond back to your own PM & you can go from there.

Have a great day & let us know if you need any additional help.

Cheers,
Skye
