Default RE: New Stik plane.

Telemaster to "Flat Stik" is quite an interesting bash - I'll bet folks that see it fly will ask how you got an Ugly Stik to glide so well.

One area you may want to keep an eye on is that portion of the rudder with lightening holes closest to the hinge line. Sometimes, lightening holes on small models don't save very much weight and with a vertical grain, you don't have much structure left there. The covering may help stiffen it up, but there's not much wood left in the webs between the holes and it might crack in that location.
