Default RE: BalsaUsa ForceOne kit bashing project

That is a big improvement in the looks department. I scratch built a delta a few years ago that looked good on paper, but ended up with that "bird head look". I never realized what didn't look right until you pointed that out.
Every Balsa Usa creation I ever saw at the club field has been an overweight and slow disappointment, even with powerful engines. Years ago I tried my hand at improving on the BUSA deltas with a home built job, but ended up with more heavy junk. Weight and drag really add up quickly on these triangular ships.
