Very cool,
what motor will you be using?
I built a Ringmaster a few years back that weighed 19.7 oz. Dyed silk on the wings with a full blown painted fuselage and tail feathers. Powered with an OS .15 FP.
I let Jim Aron fly it at the Golden State Stunt Championships and he beat me with it. That's why I don't let other people fly my planes in contests any more. VD~

looking forward to knowing the final weight and how she fly's

Hi Larry

I have a brand new Blue OS LA .25 I am thinking about using on it although I think a .19 or a .20 would pull it fine.  I have no idea what the final weight is going to be but will let you know.  I kept Eric busy cutting these kits.  I think 20 were ordered.  Gave him something to do.  LOL...
