The Mini Nimbus provides a great way to get a glider with a
performance almost equal with many 'modern' std class gliders at a fraction of the cost.
However there's always room for improvement, and refinement.
One way is to use the methods, and lessons learned in the later machines, and
retrospectively modifying our ships. Of course with most 'Minis' being around 15
to 20 years old, there's also a wealth of experience in what does and what doesn't
work.
Hopefully some of these ideas, and experiences can be shared here, to show how
you can get that extra bit out of your Mini Nimbus.
Oh, and of course here's the disclaimer....
Different countries may or may not allow modifications
to private gliders and are licensed differently. Therefore you should
check if these mods are permissible by your local authority first. Please
make sure you know the rules for
your country and if it is authorized, always ensure a licensed aircraft
mechanic (engineer) supervises your work. |
