RE: RE:
Here is the video

Plane has been been hanging in the basement for a while.
I had to use some of the radio gear in another project/plane.
I would probably use square hardwood dowel stringers along the length of the fuse similar to this.
Once the airframe had a little time on it, it started to loosen up and twist in rolling maneuvers.
That made the plane a little less precise.

If you had to do it all over again, what would you do differently?

RE: RE:

I have some questions, perhaps too late:
1) What are root and tip % thickness in ML Spattern wing.
2) Is that a 1.125'' O.D. wing tube in photo #10
Thanks for comments
