Own design I call Paradigm. Large model by today's standards at over 1100 sq inches. Projected at 10# 12 to 11# flat. A tall order but I will do it. I hate monokote so it will be painted. Some components are molded in my own molds. Of course extreme attention to weight buildup at every step. Covering is .2 oz carbon mat applied with nitrate dope and epoxy paint. Very light and strong / stiff construction. The foam is special 1/2 pound density stock....the weight savings are substantial.

The soft mount is very light, (2.4 ozs) also made by me. I have run it and does very well. 20x10 wood prop turning around 7K on a stretched pipe. Eventual prop will be 22x12 own design . Haven't decided yet what the construction will be. Maybe laminated wood to preserve sound or maybe a carbon and wood composite. Either one will be lighter than plastic

Not in any particular hurry to get the model finished tho so it will probably be done next year. I may write it up as an article if a magazine will show interest. I am collecting some photos as I go
