thanks for the comments. I actually carved the body out of HDU Foam that is used in the sign industry. it is very light weight and paints like a dream i started this build similar to the RCexplorer tri but wanted something that looked cooler. i even looked into Truggie frames and poly body for it but opted to carve one. i am going to make a mold from this one and fiberglass another to see if i can lighten a little. the trip weighs 2.4lbs flying weight now and probably has enough power to lift a six pack of cola.
