Default Anyone building the new Giant Telemaster?

Is anyone building the 12' span Telemaster? I saw one at the LHS and it looks like a well thought out kit.

Very true. I'm putting the finishing touches on my rekitted Tele40.(can't pin down a good trim scheme that looks good on a black base)

Here's the link for the 12 foot monster

From what I've seen it looks like it would only take 10-15 hours(maybe that's just me) to assemble. It's all laser cut also.

Is the fuse all stick built like this one? It seems like they would have went to a lite ply fuse and some other modern updates to make it a little more quicker to build.Why the built up elevator does it give it that more lift?On that one I could probably use a main wing of one of my trainers for the elevator and stab.lol.I am thinking of putting my 48 oro MDS in my 40 size but as I'm building it maybe a bigger one would be better.

The add mentions balsa and plywood. Have to see the instructions or someone's pics.

LOL, "balsa overcast".

Can anyone tell be what size glow engine would power her? This model appears to be designed around a AXI 5330 Outrunner.

It's similar in construction to the Senior Telemaster, but twice the size of the Telemaster40. I was told that it can handle up to a G62, but it really only needs the G26 for normal flying. The airfoiled stab is to help it fly better as it drops like a rock without full power.(Telemaster owners will know what I'm talking about here.)


Woops
