Default RE: U2 Spyplane

Hi There Fast Mover,
I Started working on this about a year ago now, and have run into a few problems allong the way, but the span on the aircraft is 3.9Meters, fully built up structure, and will be powered By a BVM 96 Fan. I figure if it gets off the ground with this then I will look at putting a Turbine into it. Retract wise It will fit a Trim Aircraft Retract, (since there is Limited space, a turbine will cure this instantly), which Turns through 90 degrees to save space. The Original plan I saw was a Bertella Plan which was lacking in all the detail to say the least, so I scaled the Plan and Redrew half of it to make it more scale based on an Italari Kit, although this U2 will never be a 100% scale, I will have a prototype from which I can build a second, and learn from the mistake of the first, (Foam wings will be the first thin I cut next time), If you would like more pics or info let me know
Regards
Sean
