ORIGINAL: GTX SlotCar




7 grams, 25.5 sq. in. wing, 6.25 sq. in. canard.
Your plane is lighter than I thought so with the AA guts it would be roughly
17 grams complete. The wing area might just be enough to keep it flying
but how well is another question. Should be fast. Landings might be a bit
rough. Try steaming a slight airfoil into the wing and give it a shot.

Finished up the fuselage and ready for some glider tests. It's a bit heavy
and might come in at about 19 grams so I'm looking for ways to lighten
it up. The fuselage is adjustable to almost any degree. Hope this one works.
