Hiya CJRacer,

I think I will use balsa sheeting for the turtledeck. Easy light weight and no fuss... Another alternative if wanting to have foam is to cut a pice of foam with a foam cutter, hot wire. I think the hot wire is the best opt if you want a turtle deck made out of foam. Just my idea...

For now I am experimenting with fiberglassing (for the very first time) and are trying to learn and see what weight that is expected with this material. After my experimenting is done I will decide on what material to cover this plane with. Allthough I still have quite some build to do before reaching that part of this construction.

In my mind this kit is sold in a very raw state...meaning Lanier have left all to the builder. In my mind this is good as one can change this kit into anything one wishes for.

CJRacer, what outline do you have for your kit, eg. engine covering ect...
