Just wondering which type of fuselage is more preferred by people....so when we put planes into production, we will consider that point too...
On smaller .25 size models I would stick with balsa. Reason being most glass fuses while greater in detail weigh a bunch more then balsa. I, myslef fly mostly electric so weight is a big consideration. A glass fuse weighs more to start, add a few repairs and it's a flying brick.
My Electric World Models Dago Red <glass fuse> is identical to my World Models Candy Man .46 Mustang. The model with the glass fuse is 1lb heavier.
Just my 2 cents from the electric guys.
