I have an O.S. FS .30 with nothing to hang it on and I can't seem to find an airframe I like for it. I am currently building a 4*40 and got to thinking I could bash enough weight off a kit and be able to fly it with that little .30 Looking at this pic I'm thinking of building it as a flat top. No turtle deck, just a flat balsa top. Remove two wing bays and using my Bridgeport mill at work, mill out some lightening holes in the fuse sides forward of the wing saddle.

Maybe some 30% nitro and ultra leightweight landing gear. I think I can get it down to 3 3/4 pounds.

Think it can be done?
