@rcpilot100 Awesome picture, the aerial shot are awesome !!!! It looks great ! Thanks for the pictures.
At 105 w/s it makes the one I am making a lot smaller. How much fuel does that engine drink each 10 mins flight?


Time for an update for the build .
The past week was spent helping a friend putting together his Extra 300S ARF with 20cc DLE engine.

Not much progress with the spacewalker.
I have sanded the wing, and overshoot the trailing edge at the root Repair underway.
I did learned to tile print the plan on smaller paper with autocad,
created a jig for the rudder and elevator trailing edge,
and used 3 strips of 2mm balsa to create the trailing edge.
I managed to get the vertical tail and rudder done mostly, at 25 grams total I am very happy.

I cant decide on the horizontal tail yet, the plan call for stick construction, however I have created some holes for the spar and draw detachable stab with ribs.
