Default RE: Twin Otter 125inch wingspan

The plane shown on it's first flight is powered by large AXI electric motors I am using Evolution 35GT 2 in mine which is app 80% completed I really wanted both prototypes flying by fall but mine more than likely won't be ready until; spring. The plans are completed ( as if anything in this hobby is ever complete) but do not want to offer them until the planes and plans are as near perfect as I can make them. I was able to get the factory prints from Viking and have tried to exactly copy the former shapes-outlines etc as well as I could. I used the sams tail size, airfoil shape,incidences, balance (26%0 as the full size plane and lucked out as this one flew perfectly and I hope mine does also. The problem for dasintex is I used the long nose version and he needs the shorter one, maybee someone else will model the short Twin Otter
