thank you guys! i am really happy with the result, specially the final weight. Canīt wait to return from short vacations and maiden her
iīm not sure how this one would score on Nats, but i would love to attend one some day, unfortunately here in brazil modellers are not interested in built models anymore, most are happy with composite models or arfs...

dear gents, good morning
we had a hollyday yesterday and i managed to do the maiden flight despite the rainy day
i am absolutely pleased with the model! took of beutifully and zero trimming was needed. flies straight and no bad habits at all
made 2 flights and still experiencing with the speed / cg ( i can shift the battery within 2").
looks promising!
will try to post a video shortly
thanks for the support while building her
Gordon Delaney design is great indeed!
