Weighs in at 11.0 oz as you see it. With care I wonder where it could end up:
Blind guess time:
Wing 5oz
Battery .8oz
Servos: 1.4oz
Rx: 0.2oz
finish the cowl area, glass/prime/finish and film: 3 oz?
Tank: 1.5oz
Linkages and other crap: 1.5oz..????????
13.4oz + 11.0oz = 24.4oz.
So if I'm real lucky should end up around 16oz/sqft wing loading, more likely 17-18oz/sqft. Won't be a floater but should return to earth safely enough.
Don't need a rudder and esp. don't want to deal with two concealed linkages. Don't need a sub-fin either. The wing is so simple, I may just take the extra couple of hours and cut replacement ribs and leave the kit wing alone. That way I just have to replicate the fuselage (it's really simple) and voila have all the bits again. I'll get it all CAD drawn first, then build a new fuse and old flying surfaces and make a 1/2A version. I already made the plug for a glass/epoxy canopy mold.
