Default OK Boys, here is what I have so far... ITS DONE!! AND IT FLIES!!! PICS ADDED...

Its not that hard, really. Just have to make sure there arent any wrinkles in the bagging film that will cause ripples in the cloth.

Today after work I sanded the seams and gave a light coat of epoxy to fill the weave. I am heading away for the weekend but next week I hope to get the fins in place, the elevons hinged (dont know how I am going to do it yet) and the radio installed. I am thinking of making a throttle (carb) fit onto my VA, or take the one off my simple 400 so I can have some sort of throttling. Wide open is fun, but then I still need some sort of "kill switch" anyway so I will have the throttle servo allready there.

I have allways liked the look of carbon weave, when it has a high gloss urethane on it.
