Default Shrike 40 with thinner airfoil

I reduced about 40% the airfoil and the fuselage was reduced in width and height also , the nose ended up just to fit a 2" spinner instead of 2-1/2" from original. Power plant is a Picco .60 F.I.R.E. still rich in break-in 17,000 RPM 10x7 with 0% nitro , no tuned yet.

Everything was sheeted , wings , stab and rudders.

It took me just 3 years to get it done
