Default RE: LT-40 Needs a Diet

It will fly OK at that weight, but somehow RC flyers have come to believe that overweight crooked models are OK if they have a big enough engine.......I'm not picking on you, really. It just amazes me. A light, straight airplane is so much easier and fun to fly.

If you want, I can send you a scan of an article about light dope paint jobs that is pretty good. Koverall, by the time it is painted, is one of the heaviest coverings around. It is great on large ships, but a bit of a burden on smaller ones.

A nice dope finish is sure nice.
