One thing about the composite wings that I think outweighs any weight consideration is that
they are absolutely straight, no warps, waves, dips, kinks or any other irregularities. The hinge line
on my OTOP is absolutely straight with zero, none, no gap at all. Both panels weigh exactly the same
total weight and if you support one end and weigh the other they are exactly the same weight at the
tip or at the root. The airfoil shape is exactly the same on either panel at any point on the wing. The wing
tips are shaped exactly the same on both panels. The ailerons are exactly the same shape and weight. I've
seen some very good builders and have a couple of friends that can build some unbelievably nice airplanes but
this level of exactness would be hard if not impossible to duplicate on a foam and balsa wing. My wing panels
weigh 17.9 ozs each with 8411sa servos, arms, extensions, linkage, screws, graphics, and servo mounts and they
are plenty light enough for me. If money were not an issue for me I would have my order in for one of the
OXAI models today !
