Ok I'm almost ready to cover it. Power is a Super Tiger G 21 .35.  I had the balsa so I didn't use a foam wing.

I built one and used FP-.35 and it flew pretty good.  Tigre will make it purr.  #^ Nice Nelson .36 give it some gusto !!  Big deficit is very thin wing. Looks good and good luck with it.

You can't see it from the angle but I took care of the thin wing issue.

 Looks great! Wise move going thicker with the wing too. y1

Hi David,

I'm going back to "unread posts" that I have missed lately with my cancer treatments.

I have a great "Builder's Kit" of the model and hope to build it soon.  Just a "play around", old timer style profile to go out and bore holes in the sky!

Yours looks really nice. y1  Did you use SLC over the open bays?  Anything over that?  Type of paint?

Thanks and I hope it flies well for you. ;D
