Default my first scratch built plane

Well guys this is my first scratch built plane. I built it off a shorten tribute fuselage and a home made wing. I built it because i like flying my tribute and i like my 3dfoamys.com vto. But the tribute and the vto rolled like a pig. So i wonted to make a plane that rolled and fly like the vto. So i traced the tributes fuselage and free handed a wing on paper. Then i traced the paper wing out on some foam and cut every thing out. Then glued it all together with hot melt. Then i put on my electronics. So far i have over 20 flights on it and i love it.

3 hitec 55 servos
Himax motor off tribute
4ch gws receiver
Eflight 20amp brushless esc
