Well here it is..... with a surveying ruler for a fuse, Magic carbon fiber landing gear, a Magnum 52, and too d@#ned windy to fly![:@]
Oh well....Maybe next weekend.
Because of the wide fuse (which has NO flex in it) I wasn't able to put the profile coro fuse on it. It only weighs 4.4 lbs I can wait to see how she flies. It should be a rocket.

NICE,good job.Once you get it trimmed your set for the wind I can fly mine with a .60 in insane wind.If you have enough power with those big barn doors you can overcome windy days.She will harrier land nicely.Seems like whenever I go out lately I see 20 to 25 MPH winds, now I love it.I have balsa I would not think of taking out in those conditions

Thanks!
I agree about the wind... the only problem, is I have a new engine that wasn't broke -in and it's not very relaible!
