Flying Pepperoni Pizza
Just finished this up tonight and ready to try.
I built this based on the FPB plans only cut the coroplast 24" round instead of square.
I have a MVVS.15 engine with a tuned pipe, 2oz. fuel tank, Hitec 555 RX, Hitec HS-81 servos on the throttle and rudder with HS-81mgs on the elevons.
Hopefully I can get it in the air sometime soon if the weather cooperates.

IT FLYS, IT FLYS, oops it quit.
Well it did fly! 
It was a little unstable in flight, so I moved the fuel tank ahead enough that I could squeeze the radio in behind it to make it a little more aerodynamic. Flew a little better, but I think the engine needs some more run in time, it won't stay running at the same speed and seems to lack power (running a 7X4 prop).
Now one of the HS81mg servos on the elevons quit working. 
Back to the workbench,
