Default RE: 1/2A Jekyll

Thanks a bunch CP.
See what I mean about trying to cowl it? Just didn't seem worth it. But balsa canopy with chrome monocote!
It's 31" tapered LE wing, haven't weighed it yet, but not a lot there I didn't need, CF pushrods, Radical RC battery. So the Big Mig should haul it well. But it's also thin enough I could toss my AME in there and run a 4 1/2 or 4 3/4" prop too. It's that old debate of thrust/vs speed. In the end the plane will decide what it likes best.
