Default Pic is actually from other guys web site
Hey Kitsu,
The pic is actually not of my plane...
Mine IS Norvel .061 powered. I will post a pic later tonight.
That pic came from

http://pease1.sr.unh.edu/aew/rc/CheapStealth/

I just took 3/4 inch thick pink foam and shaped the leading edge with 80 grit (more down on the tips to create the washout).

Took me a whole 3 hrs (taking my time) ready to fly...maybe this weend.

Standard servos 280 mah pack and 2 oz dubro tank.

Span is 36 in length is 24. I just tested the CG with nose weight till it glided nice across the yard. THEN cut elevons and put radio/engine on. That looks about right method (TLAR).

It's a lot of wing for a little motor but I put like 2.5 inch elevons on it...so should be able to bite it's own tail and have "glider" like traits.

It's just all fun....
High Flights!!
