Default RE: Black Magic VF3 E build thread!

Cool Jason,

Let's see if we can get the "last two" VF3's in the sky before the end of the year.

Finished with the hairspray. About to sheet the left wing. 80grams (2.9oz) for top and bottom sheet together.

Edit: the left wing is sheeted and in the shuck. I used 45grams of resin as opposed to the 36grams suggested by Mike. I think I was a bit heavy handed on the 'beading' around the honeycomb section. It is annoying to THROW away even 9grams of of weight advantage when one has worked so hard to reduce weight. I guess I'll have to do the other wing the same, so 18grams gone in total.
