take a look at the new ad in the MA mag, it to shows the specs as a 63 in wingspan
690 square in wing area. 7.5lb
some people will buy this plane based on those spec, but get pretty upset when they find out they got a rocket with high wing loading.

1) will you transport the plane whole or with the wing off?
2) will it matter if the gear stays up or comes down when the plane is dissassembled??

It will have a wing loading like a rock, and needs to shed a few pounds to really fly decent. CF tubes are a good starting place for the weight loss.

Summer,
Do you think that the supplied spinner will go safe to use on a Jett .56?
