I have molds for the fuselage and cut my own wings and stab (foam, balsa covered) which are on carbon tubes. The fuselage is Carbon, kevlar, and foam.

The Defiant pictured is the first out of my molds that I flew in Advanced this season. I'm happy with its performance as it helped me do well this year. (snaps very well)

I'm currently in the finish stage of a second that will have a slightly smaller wing with a thicker and wider stab. It will be interesting to see how it compares..

If you have other questions feel free to inquire, thanks for your interest

I know this is a very old post, sorry for dragging it up. I really like the look of this airplane and would love to build one. I see Todd has not been here on RCU for many years. Would anyone happen to have contact info for him or have one for sale?

Cheers
