Finally, done! A month late and 3 oz over my goal but I am very happy. I have a lot to learn about 'glassing and finishing but it looks good at a couple of steps.


OS 1.40
APC 18.1*10
Airtronics Radio gear
PPG Deltron and Monokote
10lbs 3 oz (w/ a big Nicad, tall gear, 3" wheels, etc could knock about 6oz out with out a lot of trouble)

Flies very light! Nice pace and very smooth. Only two flights today and I have a little trimming ahead of me but boy is nice to have something that flies so light. Rudder is very effective. Good stall turns. No real roll couple but pulls a little to the gear. I will tune that out very soon. Pulls a little to the canopy on down lines. CG is just at the leading edge of the tube and still playing with it.



Different approach to elevator mounting. Added a half former on the gear plate to help with the velcro that grows at my field. Also, got a neat tank idea from Jim Quinn. Will have to get some pics of that.
