Wood? I was not expecting that
Thank you for the pictures.
I bought a plane once from Lindinger; it was difficult

Hi,
In Sebart latest pricelist its is written that PrometheuS biplane has:
http://www.sebart.it/download/sebart-pricelist.pdf

"F3A 2m class - PrometheuS biplane
new 2016
with composite fuselage, painted outside mould & BALSA wings & stabs covered with ORACOVER"

Maybe it was balsa fuselage before and the latest version has composite fuselage?

Sebart must have changed the design but kept the name? The Prometheus looks very different here! http://www.sebart.it/F3A.html

From the beginning Seba announced both the biplane and mono wing (threeplane) there in wood on FB.....now in composite....must have been hard to keep the weight down at a reasonable price point....

The changes may be why it took so long for the plane to become available for purchase?
Im not sure why a wood fuse would be preferred to a composite one...
