The wingspan is about 36" or pretty close to that ....I'm at work soI cant measure....the tail surfaces and ailerons are maybe 3/16 thick..the covering is that Nelson Film that Wayne was talking about...called So-Lite and it is the "BOMB". I started out useing Black Baron lo temp covering and its got to be twice as heavy and it warped the crap outta my wing when i put it on. Had to recover the wing with the nelson film ...was gonna do a checkerboard on bottom but decided to to stay lite
I'll take some pics of the TE of the wing...thats where i got the concave TE looks kinda weird but its gonna work.
Many thanks to wgeffon and THE KAT for there valued advice,pics and tips. I'll be glad to furnish anybody with more pics and info on this bird.
I think I can probably find a place to fly indoors, but if I cant I'll test fly in my front yard or go to a field close by
