Frame tubing

[Johan]

Hi all, I am new to this group. Can someboddy perhaps help me with a complete list of the tubing required for the LSA model, lenth, diameter, wall thikness?

What plans number are you from bob?

It's an easy, fun and necessary exercise to review the plans and make a list yourself. Bob never published a list in order to encourage the builder to take the time to read them.

Recently there was a posting about VR3 Engineering in Ontario who apparently makes tubing kits for various aircraft.

FWIW, I noticed the LSA is listed with a diagram and inventory.

If you have access to Adobe, right-click on the table contents on the VR3 LSA fuselage sheet and paste into an Excel worksheet. The usual sort by size or a pivot table should give you totals by size. As mentioned, use it to verify your own measurements.

I did this a while back for the land plane and seaplane versions of the Patrol and worked up the following:
