Ohhh kay.  How about a full-fuse model for a change?

Squarecoupe.  Original design indoor Bostonian.  10g (can I never build a plane down to a weight?).  I got too involved in CLPA to finish trimming it, but it showed much promise.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

My first try at Indoor Free Flight. P-51 that will be covered with tissue ran through the printer.

Yes I know the wing is on the wrong side of the plane. I didn't take the picture. :D

Started my first electric today,  Bob Hunt's Crossfire Extreme.   I made a jig today to edge sand the wing sheeting skins.  Works real good, makes for invisible seams.  I got foam cores from Hunt for the wings (with integral flaps), stab, & elevator about a year ago; got the plans this past Friday.  Just finished gluing the 4 wing panel skins, used Titebond so they should be ready to sand in about an hour.  Each panel is a 4" sheet and two 3" sheets.   The picture shows just the eight 3" sheets; they are not yet glued, just laying edge to edge.

Gentlemen,

Below is my current Don Still's Stuka Stunt. It is the Hobby Helper version.

This is a scratch build, which is most of my aircraft. 

It is obviously in the priming phase.  You maybe surprised the final paint job. 
Stay tuned.
