Default RE: Aviation Designs "StarJet"

I'll have a tank IF it will fit. Point is that I have the 3 servos for the elevators and rudder inside at the back of the fuselage . That kept the tail surfaces as stiff as posible and reduced the noseweight required. It still allowed the installation and removal of the JPX tank

I did look at the Jetline tank but unfortunately its is just too large in diameter (93 mm).

The resin soaking into the obechi skin makes for a very strong and ding proof wing surface, much more durable than balsa. Weight is absolutely not a problem as the machine flies very slowly when necessary the crow setup works very well indeed.

I'd attach an image if I could work out how do to it in this new RCU !
