Thanks for the input, y'all. And, you're right, the more I think about it, the .61 is too much for this design. On the other hand, I can always scale up the plans a bit. I have an old OS Max .50 (pre-FSR), but I want to use that in my Senior Falcon. So, I could either use an OS SF .40 or scale it up for the K&B .61. Scaling it 110% would give it a span of 57.2" and an area of 968 sq." Or, 112% would be 58.25" span and around 1000 sq." area.

Hircflyer, thanks for the foam core offer. I actually enjoy cutting out ribs and I'm thinking this plane would look nice with a silk covered wing.

All I know for sure is the more I study the plans the more I want to build it!

Thanks,
David
I hate building wings.....go for it!!!
