Wiggy, it would take 3 or 4 hours for me to draw it up right, time I don't have right now. I took some measurements and it is 36" x 10" overall, and the CG is at 2" from the L.E. All models have tip fins, some have a central fin, too. There are 2 sets of 1/4"x1/4" hard balsa spars and a 1/4'x1/4" balsa L.E. The airfoil is thick enough to house the radio gear. The center rib is 1/4" thick balsa and there is a little bit of 1/32" plywood sheeting that acts as the underlayment to support the motor block and fiberglassing that locks the motor block to the wing. I get the plane all covered before applying the motor block and a few well placed strips of fiberglass.
I apologize for the ugly tip fins on this one, but this was the only plane not parked in the rafters.
