Default 2 meter plans

I posted some more pictures of the Typhoon 2000 on the webpage, as well as many new construction photos of my Titan.

The designer of the Titan is entertaining the idea of making the plans and parts available to the aspiring builder. I think it would go over great, as there seem to be many balsa builders still out there. I will keep you all posted on this if he decides to go this route. I truly hope he will. I have no idea how it will be marketed, that will come later i guess.

A few things I have noticed about the Titan, now that mine is framed up:

1. It builds light. No extra measures taken to make it light, there is just not many parts to make it heavy.

2. The engine bay is HUGE!! Maybe a zdz 40 gas in the next one?

3. It does not cost an arm and a leg to build. You have a balsa plane,that is lightweight, no noise enhancing fiberglass, and has the look of the European designs costing $1000+

4.. ,,and ,,Its dang pretty! at least to me
