RE: Tornado nearly ready
she is built up from ply and balsa box sections, wing is an Eppler 374 conventional built-up type(spar and part sheeted), span is 43" with a weight of about 600g "without rx and batt pack,she is set for elevon/aileron and rudder is optional .
not sure on wing loading as there is no mention of it in the manual, but i would reccomend taking a look at there website as they have some great looking kits on there, the hawk mk2 is on my shopping list i think, i have seen the mk1 flying at my local slope and it looks fantastic,it has a head turning ability in the air and on the ground too,
