Default RE: 3 1/2 Mini Ultra Stick Rebuild

People do enjoy something about seeing something fly. When I use to live in the country, I just moved a few months ago, I flew near a road and every so often a little crowd of cars would line up and watch me as I flew. I know theembarrassmentof when the MUS would tip over and people are watching, you ego kinda gets tarnished. But anyway, here's this afternoon's progress. We now have something that resembles a MUS. I cut 1/16 balsa to make the new front. Later both sides will be joined with 1/32 balsa sheeting like I did on my other MUS, which is almost ready to fly . I also went and strengthened the rear section because I have started to notice quite a bit of flexing after some ground runs with the almost completed glow stick. So hopefully that will take care of that. And FYI I haven't sanded or filled anything yet, so it isn't perfect.
