Hello everyone. I'm new on board. I'm an LSA pilot and would love to build a 2 seat airplane, perhaps 2 tandem seat.
I was thinking of following the classic way of fuselage. Something like a warren truss steel fuselage, covered with 2024 T3 aluminium. My concern is that the gross has be to lower than 290KG with a 4stroke 100HP engine. Wings, 100% in AL 2024 with a chord 1.40meter NACA 4415. Can anyone help me with some advises like: how to plane the truss? Do you have any ready plan like the EXTRA 300 2 seats? Thanks for your help.
