It's a 49" (1.25 metre) wingspan originally designed for a small glow engine but I'm using the bits from the elctric foamies to power it.

It's a very popular aerobatic sports model; most people use a 70 fourstroke in them but I've had much more fun building the little Gemini!
After a brief recess, good to hear from you, Telemaster. You had us all wondering how you were doing with your move and resettling. Sorry to hear the relationship didn't work, but then sounds it worked out for best. Your Gemini build looks like it is really coming along, looks good.
