Matt,

Look great!

Yes , Well . . . . It'd be back row , of the Car Park , in the U.S. , but we wont complain .

Think its 610 Sq In , Gerald . Scale Planform . Will correct If I check it and its not .
Think its 10 1/2 mean chord X 60 minus the bits not there at the ends .

The MB3 worked well at 5 ton ( er 70+ Oz . ) and FIFTY inch span , if a bit quick . 4.5 to 5.0 a lap , on 65 - 67 Ft to Cr .
Tho the pilot needed to be on his toes , and felt like having a crash helmet when it was overhead . Figure if I moulded
a fuse & used sheeted wing & empenage , itd come down to 60 Oz . Which It'd be without a 27 Oz Powertrain ANYWAY .

The 80 is 17 Oz Bare . C G seems near o.k.

Engines as per this ; with a custom ( Straight In ) .308  inch bore intake .



Anyone got a spare 704 muffler strap for one ??

I think the hard part's finding the 704 muffler. If you've got that bit, then the strap can't be too much of a problem. Hose clamp?

Great job with the Typhoon though. All those riblets kind of suit the design. What prop is it, btw?
