Default RE: Keecat 65 re-build with ducted fan & canards

It actually looks worse in the pictures than it really is. I only used epoxy on one side of the booms and the other side is 3M high strength adhesive. The total weight for each boom with the covering is about 7oz so its really not that bad. This plane can handle the weight without problems so i'm not too worried. I'd rather have it be a little more than and know that it will hold together. I'm almost done with the tailerons and i'll be covering up the tail booms tonight.

Naw..its a pretty cool build ya have going on there. I am trying to find some canards for mine also. I want to buy some from a jet kit like the rafale jet and put them on. It looks like you have alot of epoxy going on there, any concern about weight?
