Default RE: GB Extra 300

Where I'm building just the covered and painted airframe W/O engine or radio to give away its a little tough giving the specs. I will use the ABS cowling and glass it inside with some 1/2-3/4 oz cloth and finishing epoxy also I will set the nose up for the heavier engine such as the 120 YS. I have a set of glass pants around here for it and will be doing away with the wire landing gear, for a set of dubro glass gear. I see fiberglass spec. has the alum gear for this plane and it would save a little weight if used over the dubro glass gear but mine seems to work fine, has a shock absorber effect. The rudder is going to be inlarged a 1-1/2 on the bottom and then taper up to the original size at the top if I remember right. I think I may do what I did with mine and make it a pull-pull set up on the rudder and a 2 servo evevator setup.
Since this is not a 3-D plane I won't be changing the size or shape of the elevators or ailerons any.
A set of templates is a good idea, I'll see what I can do about that little job.
I just need to make the time to get this project on the board.
