It's a Whendell Hostetler 30% Super Decathlon. I bought the plans in December 04 and had it flying by July '05. It's 78 inches long with a 115 inch wing span and now weighs 30 pounds because I just installed a smoke system in it. It's got a Zenoah G-62 up front, and I just switched to a Bambula 22-10 prop. 5 1/4 scale servos and 2 standard all Futaba. It's covered with Solartex and painted with Krylon. Here's a video of the maiden and second day flights http://media.putfile.com/Bobs-Super-Decathlon enjoy!
