I'm really glad that you like it. I figured most hard core pattern guys would frown on their plans getting made into a spad.
Making a spad pentahalon would be MUCH harder, but not impossible. The Insight with all of it's hard angles made it a very easy plane to spad. The canopy and the cowel on the pentathalon would be very difficult. Sometime in the future I might consider spadding a voodoo though.

I never built an electric Insight ... but I did do an electric pentathlon, there is a build thread out there on it.

In the thread I'm presenting a construction inspired by the insight . Thanks to the developer of the Insight for sharing the pictures of the construction.
