Just talked to Dieter at Sky Aviation and here is the progress on the fiberglass fuse Arrow. The molds are complete and the 1st fuse has been completed. The color samples have been sent to the guy making the fiberglass fuse and the covering has been sent to the wing and stab manufacturer. The plan is the 1st 2 planes will be tested to make sure the new fuse is correct and then they will be ready to sell. I will do a build thread and go through one of the Arrows and do the flight testing and a build thread here on RCU. I understand it is taking longer than expected but for one I am glad because I believe it will be a better plane in the end. I am also one of the guys that has a preorder in for 3 of them but so much happier that he went with the glass fuse and not balsa.
