RE: Which is lighter?

Hi Foofydoo

There are 17 ribs. 15 are made of normal balsa 2 mm (0.079 "). Rib number 1 and 5 which support carbon sleeve are made of 3 mm light plywood (0.118 ").
Note that there is a litle bit difference between 2 airfoils. May be it's real or suppose due to the cutting foam or the drawing I did with my pencil !
