It seems to be standing up to the strain,should be strong in the air.
I have enjoyed looking at your build.
Nothing on here to show where your build is now.

It is nice to hear that my photos can help you in the construction of the Falcon , I hope you also start a build report with pictures .
The batteries are not a structural test , they serve simply as a dead weight when the glue was drying
For the moment there is not much Falcon building going on , I have to finish some other projects first for some colleague builders ,
I am making on the lathe some molds for vacuum forming and metric drawing for the Mills 1,3 cc diesel along with some casting of the cranckcase , see pictures
Regards Jef
