Alex, how has this updated (lighter weight) design progressing?
Hi Mark,

The V2 prototype was built by a friend of mine and is almost ready to fly. Fuselage is already glassed and painted, only wings and stabs need to be film covered.
Fuselage is almost identical on the outside, but the internal structure is completely different. Wings and stabs are swept, foam and balsa construction, but the plan is to also design and build balsa structure wings. Will post details here as soon as possible.
